I'm a fan of the green eyes with the dark background. A small suggestion would be to have the cat more in the right third of the frame for a shot like that.

Thanks for the feedback. These were intended as SOOC jpegs, no cropping or anything.

It's a bit tough taking photos of Tivo, usually I just "spray and pray", often the camera held at an awkward angle. Plus she's so dark that having enough light is challenging, both for image IQ and focusing. And the lens are wide enough that I have to hold the camera close to the cats heads. Plus her black fur, although very dark, reflects a flash, leading to tiny streaks of blown out highlights along the length of her threads of hair

Which just makes it  that much more satisfying when I get a good one.
