not a pet and On camera flash doesn't help this image.
Try to ues a more imaginitive lighting setup. Either try to get your flash off your camera, or use window lighting or a reflector to make things more interesting and softer.

Your whites are blown out, and the blanket with the leaves are busy and distracting.

The highlights on the closer panda are too distracting for my tastes. It makes the further panda seem dark even though the distribution of the light makes my eye go to the darker one.

A toy doesn't quite qualify as a pet in my mind, and the very bright light is fairly overwhelming to the panda.

DNMC IMNSHO. Pretty blown out on the big panda, too. Really can't feel good about giving this a 3, but I can't find enough to love to make it more.....sorry...

Lighting is pretty harsh but on the upside bet you don't spend a fortune in food w/ these 2!
