Now this has all of the "cute appeal" that you could want! :)
Love the comp and the look that this little guy has.
Detail looks good where it matters most, and I gotta like it!!! 8)

I think the flash is hurting, not helping here. The highlights in the eyes look terribly unnatural. The detail in the rest of the face is quite nice, however.

Awww, poor little guy! Cute portrait- nice tight crop. I like the paw up under the chin.

I really like this a lot but do wish you had stopped down some for more depth of field.

I like the use of selevctive DOF here. Very cute pose. My only nit is the unatural look of the flash. I love the rest though.

I love this shot, and knowing the difficult light you had to take this by, you did exceptionally well. This cat was in a very dark area of the enclosure and difficult to see at all - my shots were awful!!

Well done on a great job!

Very intimate and very cute. You might have been able to solve the eye/flash issue by moving the flash another foot off-camera. Nicely done.
