Having seen this in thumbnail, I was actually surprised to find that this photo was the work of an accident with an overly curious kitty. That is to say, even in full view I could very easily buy this being a planned and executed shot. The composition flows really nicely from left to right and up to down, with useful negative space and a nice set of focus, bringing the cat to the forefront.

Obviously this was not your original intent for the shot, and that's okay. Honestly, I think this accident gives the whole shot new life, because (and this is not at all a knock on your photography or macro work in general) there honestly are only so many things you can do with a macro shot of a similar flower. After a while, regardless of how technically adept the work is (as yours is, every time), a gallery full tends to lose a bit of variety. You won't get that here.
