- Oppose That's way too dark, imho. Don't really dig the composition either: It would make much more sense to me if all that empty space on the left was on the right instead (en:Lead room). Could maybe work with a much tighter crop in portrait orintation?--El Grafo (talk) 12:02, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
- Comment Of course. I made it much brighter and posted an alternative portrait crop. --Trougnouf (talk) 12:32, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose - The entire left-hand portion of the composition is unnecessary, per El Grafo. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:40, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
Alternative (portrait crop)

- Support - That is one fat cat! But cute. This composition is fun. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:40, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
- Support Per Ikan. And I also like its face expression. Undecided. Between staying here staging for the picture, or let it go with the heavy body -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:30, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose quality not there, nor composition. Charles (talk) 11:39, 25 May 2018 (UTC)

- Oppose Even though I'm a cat lover, I don't find this striking. It lacks composition and the quality could be better. Sorry. --Cart (talk) 16:01, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
- Support --Yann (talk) 09:42, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose Unfortunate background --Llez (talk) 10:55, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
- Question Why is a door a bad background for a pet cat? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:19, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose Unremarkable. We have hundreds of photos of house cats and this one doesn't seem to have any special qualities or outstanding characteristics. The primary criteria for featured picture is value and I don't see this photo having a lot of value for the projects. Kaldari (talk) 02:51, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
- It shows the cat behavior of pulling on a string, which could easily be used in an article on cat behavior. If you find the subject and composition unremarkable, those are perfectly reasonable reasons to oppose, but being sure a photo couldn't be used in an online article (and I remind you that neither is this VIC where value is the be-all and end-all nor is Commons solely for the use of Wiki sites) IMO shows a lack of imagination. We've repeatedly seen examples of photos that were claimed by someone not to be encyclopedic and were subsequently used appropriately in Wikipedia articles. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:59, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
