Cat in a Play Tent Coloring Page

About this page

Tucked inside a small fabric tent, a cat sleeps curled in a ball on a round striped cushion with its eyes closed and a little smile. The tent is shaped like a tall cone, with poles poking out at the top and tied together by a wrapped band. Big polka dots cover the cloth on both sides, and each front flap is pulled back with a bow. A thin round base rim sits under the cushion. Because the dots are large circles, they are easy to fill one at a time, and the cushion has wide ribbed sections. The sleeping cat's face and tail are drawn with simple fur lines. This calm medium page suits kids who like quiet scenes with a clear, repeating pattern.
