It looks fine to me. They like to be fairly root bound. When you do re-pot, wait until you see new root nubs just starting. Catts do this at different times of the year depending on what is in their parentage.

You could probably just pull the Catt out of the pot and put it in a new one without knocking off the media. Then there would be little to no shock to the plant.
