A tabby sits square on with its tail curled round to the left, a bow tie under its chin and a small potted flower on the right. Wide bands of stripe and nothing fiddly anywhere: this is the first cat page to hand a child of three. The stripes are the only decision worth making before starting: one orange for the body and a deeper one for the bands reads as a real tabby, while filling both the same turns the cat into a single shape. For a cat with far more fur to fill, Fluffy Kitten is settled on a cushion.
Coloring ideas for this page
- An orange tabby with the stripes a shade darker.
