Hello Frank,
Anyway, Shel's right: it's those eyes!! The cat seems to have taken on a rather knowing, almost human quality. Lovely dof. Wonderful portrait, no matter the species.
thank you for the nice words.
What kind of cat is it, BTW? Hard to tell without seeing the body and the pattern of the fur.
unfortunately, I don't know much about cats, so perhaps you can judge something from another shot I just uploaded:
