I got about 90% to the point I wanted to be- thanks for all the advice last week, it helped a lot. But now I can't choose! I won't be able to looks at these on my better monitor till this evening. Any preferences here? I keep waffling between my favorites- here roughly in order of preference.

1) The boy hated the lights, wouldn't stick around to pose very much.

2a) The girl kept attacking the 'backdrop'.

I swear, I did not touch the saturation slider for their eyes.

    I believe I like #5 the best...something about the expression.

    I like the closeups best - #1 and #2a. #2b cuts off the chin, which I like in #2a. I am not fond of the BG in the others.

    Thanks all. Ironic that after I did a lot of work to get light on the background to keep it light, and to keep the flash shadows at bay, to pick the right color background, and to try to get the cats to not eat the background, rip the background, roll around in the background, and to keep the wrinkles out, i went with the close up crop.

    I needed the lights anyway to contract their pupils so the flash didn't create demon cats, and to get a more diffusive look around their fur.
