Let’s be real—keeping kids entertained without screens can feel like a challenge. As a parent always searching for creative activities, I’ve developed a bit of an obsession with finding the best coloring pages. And these kitty-themed ones? They’ve been an absolute hit in our house!

I have put together a set of 20 free printable kitty coloring pages, and they are just adorable! Picture playful kittens getting into all sorts of fun: a mischievous cat hiding in a flower pot or a fluffy feline with a tiny crown. Yes, classic cat coloring pages are great, but adding just that little extra charm and whimsy? That’s the stuff that keeps the kids coming back!

Why These Cat Colouring Pages Stand Out

OK, there are a lot of free animal colouring pages out there. But these aren’t your run-of-the-mill “here’s a cat, color it” kind of pages. Each one has its own little vibe:

  • Super kid-friendly designs (no teeny-tiny spaces that make coloring frustrating)
  • Adorable cats in all shapes and fluff levels (because who doesn’t love a chubby tabby or a sleek Siamese?)
  • Fun themes with costumes and quirky scenes-think pirate kitties, royal cats, and more! Crisp, clean lines ensure perfect print-no blurred edges, only sharp, clear details. These pages are all about making coloring fun, easy, and full of personality!

Mom-to-Mom Tips for Stress-Free Coloring with Cats

Honestly, just giving them some crayons and paper doesn’t always cut it, which is why having a few simple strategies at your side can make coloring time way more fun—and a little less chaotic.

It is always a great idea to print out extra copies. Chances are, someone will color outside the lines in a way that they are not happy with-or even spill some juice in the middle of creating their masterpiece. Having backups is a lifesaver!

Switching up the coloring tools can also keep things interesting. On adventurous days, washable markers are a hit, but when you’re aiming for less mess, colored pencils are definitely the way to go.

Try making coloring part of the bedtime routine. It’s surprisingly calming and can help wind down those energetic vibes before lights out—kind of like a secret weapon against the bedtime wiggles.

Last but not least, make them an art folder. It keeps colourful creations from the bottom of the toy box where they inevitably get crumpled, and they will love looking through their “art collection” whenever they choose.
