Thirsty Kitten Lapping Water From a Pet Bowl

Coloring guide
A fluffy kitten crouches low, tail curled up behind, with its tongue dipped into a round pet bowl and tiny ripples spreading across the water. Its big shiny eyes look down at the bowl, whiskers fan out on both cheeks, and the front paws rest on the rim. A small pillow sits behind the kitten's head, and a few water droplets and puddle splashes dot the ground around the bowl. There's a fluffy tuft of fur near the tail tip, plus wispy fur lines on the chest and cheeks that are fun to fill in. The thick, clear outlines work well for preschoolers and early elementary kids. Soft orange and cream for the kitten, a bright blue bowl and light blue water will make those ripples show. This free printable is an easy addition to your coloring stack.
