About this coloring page

This simple coloring page shows a cute cartoon cat sleeping peacefully. The cat is curled up in a tight circle on a round, soft cushion. Its eyes are closed with a gentle expression, and its long tail is tucked neatly around its body. The cushion has small tufted details around the edge where the cat rests.

With its thick black outlines and large, open shapes, this drawing is perfect for toddlers and preschoolers. The clear spaces make it easy for little hands to color within the lines using chunky crayons or bright markers.

While coloring, you can talk about how cats love to find warm, cozy spots to nap throughout the day. Discuss how domestic cats spend up to sixteen hours sleeping to save their energy for playing, jumping, and exploring.

Drawn with the help of AI and checked by our team.

Activity ideas

  • Sing a soft lullaby together to match the peaceful mood of the sleeping cat.
  • Count the tufted folds along the edge of the cushion before you start coloring.

Learn while you color

  • Almost all calico cats are female, because the colors are linked to the X chromosome.
  • A group of kittens born together is called a litter.
  • Cats purr when they are content, and sometimes to calm themselves.

Coloring tips for this page

  • Use chunky crayons or thick markers: the big shapes are made for them.
  • Add a colored background (a sunny window, a cushion, a garden) so the cat stands out.
  • Copy a real cat: look at a photo of your own cat or a friend's and match the colors.
  • For fur, use short strokes in the direction the fur grows instead of coloring flat.
