How to Draw a Baby Kitten: Step-by-Step for Kids

A kitten looks cute because of its big head, huge eyes and tiny body. Draw those three things and your kitten will be adorable.

Step-by-Step: Drawing a Baby Kitten

Step 1: Draw the head

Draw a wide circle that is slightly flatter on top, like a soft cushion.

Step 2: Add the ears

On each top corner, draw a triangle with a rounded tip. Draw a smaller triangle inside each for the inner ear.

Step 3: Draw the eyes

Draw two large oval eyes low on the face and wide apart. Colour most of each eye dark and leave a white spot for a sparkle.

Step 4: Add the nose and mouth

Between the eyes, draw a tiny upside-down triangle. From it draw a short line down that splits into two little curves for the mouth.

Step 5: Draw the whiskers

On each cheek, draw three thin lines fanning outward.

Step 6: Draw the small body

Under the head, draw a small pear-shaped body. It should be much smaller than the head.

Step 7: Add paws and tail

Draw two little oval front paws at the bottom and a thin curved tail rising behind the body.

Step 8: Add fur and outline

Draw a few small stripes on the forehead and body, then trace with a marker and erase the pencil.

Colouring Your Baby Kitten

Orange tabby, grey, black or white all suit a kitten. Colour the inner ears and nose pink, and leave a bright highlight in each eye.

Tips for Drawing a Baby Kitten

  • Place the eyes low on the face. The lower they sit, the younger the kitten looks.
  • Keep the body tiny compared with the head.
