Here is a Halloween favorite: a black cat with an arched back and a puffed-up tail standing beside a small pumpkin, its pointed ears, big round eyes, and curling whiskers all on show, with a full moon glowing behind it. The cat's bold body shape gives younger children a clear, fun area to fill, while the whiskers, pumpkin, and moon add details for older kids who want more to do. Black cats are a long-running symbol of Halloween, and in real life they come in glossy shades of black, brown, and grey. The arched back and bushy tail are exactly what a real cat does when it is startled, which is a fun thing to point out while you color. Print it on US Letter or A4 paper and decide whether your cat stays classic black or turns into a surprise color all its own.

Coloring Tips

  • Classic or colorful — go traditional with a black cat, or try grey, ginger, or even purple for a twist.
  • Light the moon — a pale yellow moon behind a dark cat makes a striking spooky silhouette.
  • Pop the eyes — color the big round eyes bright green or yellow so they shine out of the dark fur.

Cats arch their backs and puff their tails when they are startled, which is the classic spooky Halloween pose shown here.
