Sketch the Body Shape
Let’s draw the shape of a body!
Start by making a super-duper oval shape for the kitty’s body. This will be the starting point for your super cool drawing!
Add the Head
Let’s put on the Head!
Draw a teeny tiny oval shape connected to the body for the kitty’s head. Put it a little higher than the middle of your body.
Outline the Ears
Let’s draw the ears!
Draw two pointy shapes on top of the cat’s head for the ears! Cats’ ears are super cool and can show lots of feelings! You can play around with how they tilt and move.
Sketch the Facial Features
Let’s draw the face parts!
Can you please draw two eyes that look like almonds on the head? Cats have super cool eyes that are usually slanted! Put little dots in the eyes to make them look like they have pupils. Make sure to leave a tiny white spot to make them look real!
Draw a teeny tiny, pointy nose right under the eyes. Next, draw a wiggly line under the nose to make a smiley mouth!
Create the Whisker Pads
Let’s make the Whisker Pads! Yay!
Draw little curved lines on both sides of the nose to make the kitty’s whisker pads. You can add some cute little whiskers sticking out from these soft pads.

Cats have super cool fur! So, let’s add tiny, little strokes all around their body, head, and tail to make it look furry and fluffy! When you draw, press the pencil hard or soft to make it look like the picture is popping out!
Make the Features Better:
Draw over the eyes, nose, and mouth with clearer lines. Tell me all about the kitty’s ears and fur! Does the kitty have special patterns on its fur? And what about its ears? Are they shaped in a special way?
Bye-bye rules!
Make sure to get rid of any extra rules and light pencil marks, so that only the clear parts and fluffy fur are left.
