About these cat coloring pages

The cats on this page fall into three clear moods. The simplest ones are single cats on a white page: sitting, stretching into a long ramp, curled asleep with the nose tucked in, or leaning over a ball of yarn. Each has a thick outline, a round head and wide ears, so a young child can fill the whole page in one sitting. The middle group puts a cat into a small scene from home life: a play tent, a paper bag, a rainy window, a picnic blanket, a toy train and a reading corner with a pom-pom rug. These add one or two objects to color but keep the cat as the biggest shape. The rest are drawn in a slimmer anime style for teens, with longer fur strokes and settings such as a garden pond with koi, roof tiles under a crescent moon, a folding fan and a paper lantern. Several cats carry stripes, which makes them good practice for tabby patterns.

Coloring tips

  • For a tabby, color the whole cat in a light orange or gray first, then add darker stripes on top so the lines stay visible.
  • Real cat coats are a good color guide: ginger, black, gray, cream, or a calico mix of white, orange and black patches.
  • Leave a small white dot in each eye so the cat looks bright and alive, even when the eye is colored dark.
  • On fluffy anime cats, follow the direction of the fur strokes with your pencil instead of coloring across them.
  • Color the object the cat is hiding in last, in a contrasting color, so the cat still stands out.
