A big thank you to everyone who commented on this. I did make a couple of choices that might have detracted from the shot.
1.The reflections. I waited till afternoon just to get them. Used as a method of bringing some more of the outside world into the picture.
2.The label on the bottom left. I didn't clone it out because her paw was behind it but at this point I can see that it is distracting and I should have gotten rid of it.

Nice portrait - like the colour contrast here with the reflected sky. I would personally have cloned out the glass mark bottom left ... I keep trying to read what it says, and can't, quite.

One of the best cat portraits I've ever seen - it's the colors, the transparency of the glass with its reflections, the title, and the cat's expression. Wonderful! - 9

Feline curiosity represented in a photograph. I like the shadows surrounding the cat. It adds to the mystery.

it is nice to know they use temered safty glass in case kitty becomes dairing. that and the higher up reflections detract from the shot. You could have spot edited that out in this challenge and used a polorizer to take care of the reflections.

Pet pictures get a bad rap at DPC because most are gratuitous and deserve it, but your image is exceptionally good. Composition and technical quality are outstanding. The view of the cat staring longingly out through the window gets your message across in a creative way. Great work.

Nice title and good shot. Super expression on the kitty. It must have been difficult to get this pose with the reflections. You did a good job of minimizing them.
