A light grey, long-haired cat is positioned on a patterned rug in an indoor domestic setting in Baghdad, Iraq. The cat, oriented to the left, is sitting on its hindquarters with its front paws raised to its mouth, engaged in a grooming action. The rug features a light brown base with repeating floral or geometric motifs in shades of red, brown, and cream, and a distinct border design. In the background, a brown upholstered sofa with visible wooden legs and a dark blue object resting on it is partially visible. The lower right foreground shows a portion of a light-colored, possibly upholstered chair or stool with a wooden leg. The scene is illuminated by ambient indoor light.
