I swear I've never had a cat, with it's eyes actually open, sit still for a full second whilst I had a camera pointed at it. I'm VERY impressed! (And I like the picture.)

Not sure if I like the semi-transparent border- it's a bit distracting.
Also, and yours is certainly not the only one, but using a one second exposure has added nothing to the actual photo for me. In my mind I'm not requiring movement, and the fact that it was a one second exposure doesn't need to be drilled home, but simply taking a photo and lowering your iso/stopping down to achieve a 1 sec exposure seems slightly shoehornish. Perhaps you are illustrating how lazy cats are. And now I'm rambling. Back on track- the scene seems a bit cluttered and undecided...there are clothes in the background, a psychadelic 70's chair that demands attention, a giant fur pelt, and a cat staring you in the eye, all vying for the viewer's focus.

Unusual for such a pose to be held even for a second. Nice lighting.

I love the composition and the character enthroned at the center of it.
