Hi Montie,
A suggestion?  Crop it tighter? As you look atthe photograph crop the left 
side into not quite cutting the whiskers, maybe about a 1/4 inchfrom edge of 
frame and whiskers. This should put them almost into the lower left corner.

Crop the body away to about the whiskers are about a half inch from the 
bottom edge.

The right side bring the frame into about an inch from the edge of the right 
ear as we look at the photo. And the top down to about the same  approx. 
inch.

With cropping on my screen this should give you an on screen photo size 
about  W. -- 5.417 and H. - 4.222 with 7s pixels. Give or take.

But now the eyes really jump off the screen! :-) Merely a suggetion.
cheers,
ted
