I have a cat in my group but havent had him as dps in a long time so cant really make a comparison... im pretty happy with the numbers though. I knew since I wasnt going to depend on shred (positional) that i wouldnt be doing high numbers, but he keeps up well enough where i dont feel bad for bringing him along.

Another thing that will help is mangle damage is going up by 20% if i recall in a newer beta build so since im spamming mangle instead of shred that will help quite a bit.

Anyways, i ramble.
