How to draw a cat sitting in a winter window step by step
How to Draw a Cat Sitting in a Winter Window · tinyhandscreate.com
Step 1: Window frame
Draw a tall upside-down U shape for the outside of the window, with two straight sides and a flat top. Then draw a smaller upside-down U inside it, leaving a gap all the way around.
Step 2: The windowsill
Along the bottom, draw a long rectangle with rounded corners for the ledge. Start at the bottom of one side of the window and close the frame across the bottom.
Step 3: Head and ears
Near the middle, draw the top of a wide, puffy head with two small pointed ears. Add a short curve down each side, but leave the bottom of the head open for now.
Step 4: The chubby body
Starting under the left side of the head, draw a big rounded curve down and across the bottom to make a bean-shaped body. Let the bottom of the curve rest on the windowsill.
Step 5: The cozy scarf
Draw two long curved bands across the cat's neck, one above the other, so they wrap around from side to side. Then add a small rectangle hanging down in front, below the bands.
Step 6: Face and whiskers
Draw two small dots for eyes, with a tiny smile between them. Add a few short whisker lines on the right cheek, then draw the cat's right side down to the sill.
Step 7: The warm mug
On the sill to the right of the cat, draw a short cup shape with an oval on top. Add a small curved handle on its right side.
All done!
Go over your lines with a marker, then color it in.

Tips for drawing a cat sitting in a winter window
- Draw the window first and keep the sides straight, so the cat has a neat frame to sit in.
- The scarf is the trickiest part. Draw two long curved bands across the neck, not straight lines, then add the little flap in front.
- Keep the eyes small dots and the smile tiny so the cat looks calm and sleepy.
