Very nice, cat, scene looks good. But, for me, not a homerun, I think if you had arched the models back and had her yawning, mimicking the cat, fantastic. To me, the cat is the focus, and action in the work, the model is well...there.

Similarity in posing was the initial idea... but it was slightly changed during composing.

What a great pair of characters!
On a critical note, if it were my picture, I would have framed it closer, removing a lot of the empty space around the outsides. Those two are worth zooming in closer, definitely, and I think it would focus the composition.

In my opinion, there is a minimal space around the characters

Definitely not too close!
The excess space that I see here makes the whole picture looked "posed". As if you have asked the subjects to specifically be in that place and in that position and hold it while you take/render the picture. Go in tighter, remove the unnecessary space (I use "unnecessary" here deliberately because it doesn't actually speak to anything in the picture; elements---including space---should be there for a reason, in my opinion, and if they're not saying anything positive to the picture then out they must go!).
I've just tried a quick crop within PSP, and the result (to my eyes) looks much more real and natural, not nearly as "posed", and that's just by cutting away the blank space (naturally I couldn't move the camera and get a better sense of perspective and proximity, which is another thing that is required to enhance the dynamics of a picture).
It's all opinion, obviously, but only one of us is right!Β (Just kidding, please note.)
