Cat Coloring Page: Curious Cat With Butterflies (Free Printable PDF)

Cat coloring page with butterflies (free printable PDF)

← Back to Cat Coloring Pages

This cat coloring page shows a curious kitty sitting and looking up at two butterflies. It’s a simple, calm design with plenty of open space, so kids can color it quickly and still add their own details.

A fun way to color this page is to make the butterflies the “main colors” and keep the cat simple. For example, choose two bright butterfly colors, then use one or two neutral colors for the cat (gray, orange, or brown). Kids can also add a few tiny dots or a soft sky background to turn it into a gentle scene.
