Do be careful of exposure issues when shooting black-and-white cats (and anything else for the matter). You've got some awful blown-outs in the highlights (the white areas). Your first pic is a clearest example of how bad it can get.

Learn to get your basics (like metering) right. First.

Also watch your shutter speed to minimise the handshake blur. Its good that youve gotten down low though as many people tend to take it standing up..
