Mother Cat with Kittens coloring page

Loving mother cat grooming her three tiny nursing newborn kittens. It is drawn as clean black outlines on white and centred on an A4 page with a 12 mm margin, so your printer will not clip an edge.

It mixes broad areas with finer detail, which works for school-age children and adults alike. Colouring it in here splits the drawing into 17 separate areas — click the bucket into any of them, or switch to the brush for shading that has no outline of its own.

A closer look at Mother Cat with Kittens

A mother cat lies curled with her eyes closed, nose lowered to three kittens tucked against her belly. Her tail comes round to enclose them and the whole group is drawn as one continuous rounded mass.

17 areas, the lowest count in this collection. The difficulty is not the line work but the overlap: four cats in a heap with almost no separating detail, so the kittens only become visible if each is given a different tone from the mother.

Pick one colour for the mother and lighter versions of it for the kittens — a cocoa cat with sand, cream and honey kittens reads as a family, where four unrelated colours reads as a pile. Blush noses on all four.

Print it at 100% rather than “Fit to page” — the 12 mm margin is already in the PDF. The printing guide covers paper weight, ink and the print-dialog settings that matter.
