Cat on a Cushion Coloring Page

About this page

Chin down on a flat rectangular cushion, a striped cat lets its front paws drape over the top edge while its eyes look straight out. Dark bands cross the forehead, cheeks and back, and the thick ringed tail loops out at the right. The cushion is a plain pillow shape with a seam line near the bottom and rounded corners. Behind the cat, the body curves up and to the right with a few stripe marks across the side. The page has no other items, so every part is clear. Wide stripes and a simple pillow give an easy path through the picture. Kids who like sleepy animals will enjoy giving the tabby its pattern, and the cushion becomes a spot for any color or design.
