Probably not the only cat photo in this challenge and I'm really not expecting this one to do well.
My carpet is horrible, it's not a posed shot and the polished wow factor is missing. However my cat is the silkiest and smoothest creature I know so here she is :)

I've no doubt that this cat is exceptionally smooth and silky to the touch - all your photographs of her really emphasize the delightful nature of her markings and fur (and personality, I might add!) You're right, though in that this probably isn't the best shot you've had of her, but I like the fact she seems to be quite enjoying the spot of sunshine - a very familiar pose for cat owners everywhere. A very well distributed bell curve on the score - you met the challenge, but as you say, failed to "wow" voters.
I never tire of seeing pictures of her, so keep entering them! (I particularly love the one where she's leaping into the picture - still one of my favs of yours!)
I would crop this to just the part of the cat in the light because the hair looks soooo silky its incredible but all the shaddows take away from the focus I think
