Cat Resting on Comforter at Friend's House

Yesterday had lunch at a friend's house. Her cat was resting on a comforter on the floor. I don't have that many images of animals.
This cat was cooperative and just rested there even though I was a stranger.  Black and pastels two different types of light for the camera
to see.  Unable to get the "catch light" in the eyes as light coming from behind the cat. It was not like I could tell the cat to poise differently. It wasn't long until she was licking her fur.  Did lighten and crop in PSE 11 so I could see the texture of the fur. Probably should have gotten lower and had her at my eye level. I did take with another P & S camera too.
