This was a rushed one, with 20 mins to close I grabbed the kitten and put him in the draws. He kept on wanting to jump out. I then found he was interested in the shutter sound. So I turned up the volume and score this shot. I wish the background was in focus. Thanks for the great comments.

What a sweetie. And if this were a pets challenge I'd have scored pretty high. But even though the kittie's eyes are kille, the furniture is out of focus.
With the depth of field you've selected, you've shifted emphasis mainly to the kitten. If you went with a smaller aperture to increase depth of field you would bring the drawers into focus more and they would be more prominent in the scene and create a stronger relationship between the drawers and the kitten to tell your story better. The position of the kitten would allow it to remain as the primary subject however.
That aside, the kitten is quite cute and you've captured a terrific look of curiosity. The eyes are in great focus. You've handled the exposure quite well and left the white hair white without losing detail.
