What should I be working on? Feedback needed!

General
So once again I'm looking for input from all you lovely people on the direction my art is going. Is there anything about the way I draw furries generally that doesn't suit your tastes? Any anatomy things I need to work on? I'd love to hear your opinions.
Regarding specific pictures, I'd like to know if there's anything I can be improving upon based on these three, which I consider my current best:

Critiques on texture, shading, lighting and all that jazz would be great.
I'm not looking for praise (though I do love seeing it in the comments for my pictures, seriously cheers up my day). I just need help figuring out how to improve. I do already have some ideas, but input from other people can give me a better perspective. So tell me what you think! Much love :3

More knots but a cat is fine too.
Look at where your light sources are coming from, what colour they are, your intensity, and see how what they're hitting reacts. Is the air clean or dusty/hazy, can you see the beam or not? Might be worth having a physical study of this and trying some observational drawing to what you find works for you.
Add colour and observation of light sources can really set an atmosphere for a picture, whether it's accentuating the passion of a situation, whether the room is cold or warm, or even whether the situation is tense or ominous.
Hope this helps, but I do theatre/concert lighting as a profession. ^^
(Plus I hope that is okay for critique, I hope that did not come out the wrong way or anything. If there's something you're usure about, feel free to hit me a note or message, or even at the coffee meet before CFz as I'm not at the next one)
Dunno if I'll be at the coffee meet. I'll try to be but I've been too tired to head all the way to brum after work most weeks x3

Probably up to taste but I like chunky paws. XD
