My first critique. I think you did an excellent job captivating the feline's blue eye's, while everything else isn't drawing attention away from his eye's. The background isn't very detailed which is good for this sort of picture. The cat looks youthful but is serious. And how you got the cat to stay still is remarkable. The cat looks very fluffy and soft which is cute and appealing. There isn't much color other then the eyes and the slight pink on the ears and the nose. The white feline is adorable and I think you used that to your advantage. The angle is good as well, the cat isn't perfectly lined up so you can see its back and hind legs. The features on the cat's face are very much brought to your attention if you look beyond those vibrant blue eyes. I think the photograph was very well taken and you must have planned it very well from the wonderful end result. I applaud your photography skills, keep up the awesome work.
As a designer and a photo hobbyist, I am very keen on details. Yes, details. And more importantly, consistency. The vision on the subject is great. High key photography is very good here in this subject, taking advantage of the snow-white colour of the cat's fur.
One thing I've noticed is the black patch on the right side of the photograph, about a third away from the bottom. As for non-trained eyes, they can probably pass it out. However, as professionals can see, it can be disturbing in some sense that the whole photograph should be on high key, consistent on whites and light colour shades. Trying to avoid strong shadow casts and dark-coloured object in high key photography is essential to make the whole photograph consistent in its portrayal. If I am going nitpick some more, I would also point out the black gap/patch at the feet of the cat on the bottom right part of the photo. But that is really stretching out that much.
I love the muted shade of blue of the eyes and the pink hue of the nose. That really suit the entire colour tone of the photograph. Nice, coolly soft bokeh added on the serene atmosphere. I also love the highlight clipping on the cat, which subtly blended the cat to the background without having make it look sharp and edgy nor soft and bland. As for the expression of the cat, I know that it can't be helped ('cause it's a cat), but it could use some more cutey expression to make the atmosphere much more tranquil.
The background is non-contrastive and a little noisy, but overall this draws the viewer's focus into the face. It's not a relaxing picture to me because the viewer to focus their attention, but it makes it much more engaging. I've never seen a photo quite like it. Nicely done.
