If this had have been executed better (ie focus right and lighting manipulated to suit) and the crop not so savage top and bottom, this may have been a great shot. The DOF would have been nice with the other cat in the BKG.
The kitties are beautiful, I really like the smokey one! I did find the photo a bit difficult though because of the blurred aspect of it. I don't know if that was a deliberate choice, but for me it detracts from the photograph, over emphasizing the softness of the cats' fur and making it a strain to see detail.

The first thing I notice in this shot is that the subjects are blurry. The lighting seems to be poor and the location has to much going on in the back.
