Not sure if I agree - that they are really bad, depends on what you want. It appears that you had a small apeature / large opening that will give you a shallow depth of field. Often people try for this very effect.

What lens are you using?
What aperture (f/stop)setting?
How far are you from the front subject, and what's the separation between the 2 cats?

It would be helpful to know what lens you were using or was this taken with a point-n-shoot. If a p-n-s, what setting was it? This is a depth of field issue.
BTW, I like your "really bad one" because you were at eye level and the upfront cat grabs my attention.

I was using a Nikon d5100 and not really the right lens 55/300 but it was on and didn't want to change it right then

Read the lens/aperture/shutter speed guide noted in my signature line. It's a very basic intro to all that stuff. Then, when you understand it, pick up almost any How-To book on photography and learn more.I think you maybe right because I was playing with the aperture to see what I would get new camera and am learning to use it ..It my first dslr
You're right though, that was probably not the right lens for that shot, and you probably would have needed an aperture less than f/3.5 to get both cats in focus.
