Search for cat colouring pages and most of what comes back is one particular cartoon cat that belongs to a Japanese company. These are not that. They are drawn as cats: a tabby lying with her kittens, a cat wedged into a cardboard box, one watching the moon from a windowsill. A child who likes their own cat gets more out of these than out of a branded face.
Nothing is pre-filled black
Cats are the subject most often printed as a solid silhouette — a black cat shape with two white eyes. There is nothing to colour in that. Every page here is a hollow outline, and even the pupils are drawn as rings, so a cat can come out ginger, grey, tortoiseshell or bright purple.
Fur without shading
None of these pages use hatching to suggest fur, because hatching colours badly. The markings on the tabby and the kittens are drawn as closed shapes instead, which means they can be left white, filled darker than the body, or ignored altogether.
The three long ones
The patterned cat, the cat mandala and the flower-framed cat are zentangle work for adults. The patterned cat in particular has enough distinct compartments to keep a whole box of pencils busy.
Printing
Print at 100% scale rather than “fit to page”, in Letter or A4 to match your paper.
