First Things First, Draw A Head and A Body
The head of the cat looks a bit like an upside-down oval. Start with the head, then from both sides trace a curved line down to form the body. Remember this doesn’t have to be perfectly straight or perfectly curved.
Draw The Eyes, Ears, Foot, and Tail
Draw two smaller off-centered ovals side by side inside the head for the cat’s eyes. Beneath that, draw a small curved upside-down triangle for the nose. Two curved triangles on each side of the head will form the ears. Next, to draw the two front feet, start from the middle of the body and draw something like an extra-long “W”. Then, draw the two back feet on each side of the bottom. Finish up with a tail. As long and wavy as you would like.
Draw The Whiskers and Nails
What’s a cat without its whiskers? Draw short lines on each side of the cat’s cheek. Next, draw an upside-down triangle inside the eyes to form its pupils. Then, use short curved lines, inside the foot. to highlight the cat’s nails. The cat’s mouth looks just like the letter w. Draw one underneath the nose then finish off with two short curves on both edges.
Draw A Cat In A Hat
A cat in a hat is not complete without, well, a hat. Start off with a long curved triangle that extends from the cat’s ears. Then, draw a wavy semi-circle from one ear to the other for the brim. Finish this off with a small square in the middle of the hat.
Draw The Finishing Touches
Your cat’s hat looks perfect as is, but for extra detail, you can draw in a little belt at the top of the hat. Think of it as a square in the middle of two slim rectangles. That’s it, you’re done drawing a cat! If you’ve been following the series, your set of Halloween drawings is now complete! Encourage your kids to come up with spooky names for the cat.
