Tall Skinny Cat in the Hat Looking Surprised

A tall, skinny cat stands with his body turned slightly to the side and his face looking out at us. He wears a tall striped top hat that tilts a little over one pointed ear. His round eyes look wide and a bit surprised, and he has a small dark nose, a wide cheeky face and long whiskers sweeping out on both sides. Fine pen hatching gives texture to his fur along the neck and the shoulder. A big floppy bow tie sits at the base of his neck, and his gloved hands are folded together in front of his belly. The wide white stripes on the hat are easy to fill in. Try red and white for the hat, then color the bow tie a bright shade so it stands out. Fine-tip markers or colored pencils work well for the hatched fur lines. This free printable is a good pick for Dr. Seuss reading days.
