About Cat coloring pages

Our cat coloring pages are full of personality. One cat wears a bow tie, another a crown, and others dress up as a pilot, a superhero, an astronaut or a detective looking at footprints. There are quiet pictures too: a cat napping in a basket, sitting in a box, watching the rain from a window or stretching after a nap.

Kitty cat pages are a good way to practice fur. Let your child color the whole cat in a light shade first, then add stripes or patches in a darker one. Orange tabby, gray and black-and-white are classic cat colors, and the outfits can be any color at all.

How to use cat coloring pages for learning

  1. Story starters. Pick a dress-up cat, like the detective or the pilot, and ask your child to tell you what happens next. Write one sentence of their story under the picture.

  2. Count the whiskers. Count the whiskers on one cat, then on another. Talk about why cats have whiskers: they help them feel things close by, even in the dark.

  3. Cat care chat. Use the basket and food pages to talk about what a pet cat needs each day: food, fresh water, a clean litter box and a cozy place to sleep.

  4. Pattern practice. Color stripes on one cat, spots on another and patches on a third. Ask your child to name each pattern.

Questions parents and teachers ask

Are there cute cat coloring pages for toddlers?

Yes. Use the Easy filter to find simple cats with big shapes, like the cat in a teacup or a happy cat sitting. These suit children aged 2 to 4 and can be finished in a few minutes.

Can I print all the cat coloring pages at once?

Yes. Press the Download all button at the top of the page. You get one PDF with every cat coloring sheet, sized for US Letter paper.

What colors should I use for a cat?

Real cats are orange, gray, black, white, brown or a mix. Tabby cats have stripes and calico cats have patches of orange, black and white. For outfits and backgrounds, any color works.

How can I use cat coloring pages in the classroom?

Cat pages are a good fit for pet units and story writing. Give each child a dress-up cat, have them color it and write a short story about the cat's job. Read a few out loud at the end.

Do you have cat and dog coloring pages too?

Yes. Look in the Animals section for Dog and Puppy pages. Printing a cat page and a dog page together is an easy way to compare the two animals with young kids.
