Cat color by number

Each cat is split into numbered areas. Find the number in the color key, fill those areas with the matching color, and the cat comes together one color at a time. Every page has a printable sheet with the key, a colored answer page, and an online version that only fills an area when you pick the right color.

How to download and print the cat pages

Download
Tap Letter or A4 under a picture. The PDF saves to your Downloads folder; on a phone it opens in the PDF viewer, where you can share it to a printer.
Paper size
US Letter (8.5 × 11 in) is the standard in the US and Canada. A4 (210 × 297 mm) is used almost everywhere else. Both files hold the same picture with a half-inch margin, so nothing is cut off.
Print settings
Choose Actual size or 100% scale, portrait. Black and white or grayscale is enough and saves color ink. For the realistic cats, pick Best or High quality so the fine fur lines stay sharp.
Paper
Regular 20 lb (80 gsm) copy paper is fine for crayons and colored pencils. For markers use cardstock, 65 lb (176 gsm) or heavier, or put a spare sheet underneath: markers bleed through thin paper.

Cat coloring pages FAQ

Are these cat coloring pages free?

Yes. Every page is free to download and print for home and classroom use. There is no sign-up.

Which pages are best for preschoolers?

The Easy group: thick outlines and a few large shapes. The two easy color by number cats are also made for children who know the numbers 1 to 8.

Can I color the cats online instead of printing?

Yes. The pages under Cat coloring pages online open in a coloring tool in your browser, and the color by number pages have their own tap-to-fill version. Progress is saved on your device.

What is the difference between a coloring page and a color by number page?

A coloring page is a blank outline: you choose every color. A color by number page has a number in each area and a key that says which color goes there, plus an answer sheet.

What colors should I use for a cat?

For a ginger cat use orange with a cream chest; for a tabby, warm grey with darker stripes; for a Siamese, cream with dark brown ears, face, paws and tail. Pink for the nose and inner ears suits all of them.
