#cat#tabby#stretching

Mid-stretch and clearly enjoying it, this tabby cat reaches its front legs far forward while arching its back up high and raising its tail. Its eyes are squeezed shut in a satisfied yawn, and striped tabby markings run along its back. Those stripes are the fun part to color, giving you a clear pattern to follow down the spine, while the long stretchy pose adds a sense of motion. Cats stretch like this to wake up their muscles after resting, much like we do, and the deep downward stretch is one of their favorites. Tabby is not a breed but a coat pattern, so its swirls and stripes can appear in many colors of cat. The arched shape makes a striking outline that looks great in warm browns and oranges. Print it on US Letter or A4 and follow those stripes wherever they lead.

Coloring Tips

Stripe by stripe — color the tabby markings in a darker shade over a lighter base coat for a real striped look.
Classic tabby tones — warm browns, grays, and oranges all suit a tabby's natural coat.
Show the stretch — keep the body color flowing in the direction of the stretch to emphasize the long, reaching pose.
