He is my favourite pet. He is now 1&1/2 years old and he is really cute.
Now about the photograph: I opened the image in photoshop and cropped a little. Then added a framed.. thats it. no other adjustments..! Then resized to width 640 maintaining the aspect ration. I certainly dont know how to work on great with other adjustments. If you do know some ways by which i can improve this photo in photoshop, i'm really curious to know.
I know this isnt that good to go up to the top, but i am just curious to know what sort of ratings and comments i'm gonna get for this one...! After all, photography is all about learning and understanding rite? :)

What a cutie to start with, I'm a cat lover myself. The expression on his face fits very will with the title, it's the same expression all my cats have, "You are here to serve me." :)
That said, let's talk about the shot. Thanks for the detailed comments, gives me an idea what you have done already. When you say you cropped it a little bit, did that include cropping off the tips of the ears? I think this might have worked better if one as more on a corner of the shot and leading you in and out of the shot. Or better yet if they hadn't been cropped off at all. The lighting is a bit dull to me personally, just a tad more contrast to make the pop a little more?
I do like the way the one paw is leading you in and out of the lower right corner. Very nice.
The border seems a tad heavy for this shot to me, maybe if it was just a little smaller, not so thick? I like the colors used, a good contrast and balance to the shot itself.
Again, a beautiful cat and and a lovely shot overall. Hope these comments help!
Good Luck In Future Challenges!

i just had to lie on the ground to take that photo! Atleast he is one good pet that i have who give me enough chance to shoot. My dog never gives me a chance!
Whoa, you must have been really reaked when you saw this looking in through the letter-box. Surprised there isn't more camera shake. Oh no, hang on, it's a border, silly me.
Good cat photo, well exposed, nice light in the eyes, and a pose that really says 'cat'. I just think thhe border is the most eye-catching thing about the shot by a street, and not a helpful street at that.
I find the border far too overbearing and obtrusive for this picture. The photo itself seems good but it's hard to focus on it because of the border. 4
