You might consider editing the shot to adjust the saturation of the magenta channel to 0. If you look at the spots on the cat there's a clear magenta hue that isn't appealing. Removing magenta can often help in strong sunlight as it appears to be a colour channel that gets a bit (if not totally) overloaded in such lighting.
Tinkering with the brightness and contrast over the cats might also help - just to bring them out and lift them from the busy background as they are busy cats themselves in terms of detail and patterning on their bodies.
