Well, one answer may be T.S. Elliot's

"(...)
When you notice a cat in profound meditation,
The reason, I tell you, is always the same:
His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation
Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name:
His ineffable effable
Effanineffable
Deep and inscrutable singular Name."

I like the composition of this, the cat more or less fills up the paper without it seeming to full I also like the very subtle colour difference between the cat and it's environment, almost like it's blending in like a pet cat does at home, but maybe that's taking it too far

Ah, you got the color thing exactly right.
Thank you very much!
