Hi C: You said come critique, so I'm here.
My first reaction is 'WOW' at the epic amounts of improvement. My second reaction is: did you adopt this from something your friend made on a cat-maker? Because the design looks EXACTLY like one of Kamirah's cat-maker options. Not saying you copied, i just want to know where the design originally came from.
Next, I won't comment about anatomy because eI'm sell working on it, however I do enjoy the position you drew her in. Very cute and she doesn't look distorted, you know? Only thing I'd say is her right ear looks a bit off. But that is so ridiculously nit-picky that you needn't worry about it at all.
I'm also a photoshop user, and for future I suggest making your pictures at least 8 by 8, and 200 pixels per inch. It creates more opportunity for detail. Also, make use of the many layers and brushes available to you.
Other stuff: I like her name, but is she a warrior? Because if she is I must say the name doesn't exactly work. Also, what is her personality? It'd be cool to hear.
Then end C:

1. Yeah, she did make it with the cat maker. I didn't trace or anything, but I looked at the cat-maker picture and I was like "...THAT'S why my tails look so mucked up!" so I tried to do the same position. I was worried that it looked too much like the original design so I tried to change things up a bit...it didn't work too well, but hey. Either way, I'm surprised I could do this with photoshop. I've never done a full picture including lineart with it alone before.
2. Thanks 
3. I'll try that in the future, thank you
4. Well, she's not a warrior. I actually don't adopt many warriors. I kind of have a strange little story thing called 'Silva' and it's got cats with Greek and Latin names that all somewhat relate to them. Veritas means truth. So she's honest. I haven't decided the rest of her personality, but I am determined to make sure she in't a Mary-Sue.
5. Thank you

Nicely done C: Using references is a great way to start learning new positions. I usually use references that are real animal pictures, either ones I took or ones that are on google. It's REALLY helpful, and when you use "natural" animal pictures, no one can even begin to accuse you of copying. All you have to do is retain your own style C:
