How to Draw a Fat Cat

Learn How to Draw a Fat Cat the Easiest Way

Hey guys, today I’m going to teach you how to draw a fat cat in 5 steps. My drawings are pretty simple and just require you to know how to draw basic shapes. If you want to practice the basics first, check out my how to draw a sphere, how to draw a cone, or how to draw a cube tutorial.

The final fat cat drawing for those that don’t wanna read:

Step one | Draw the Shape

The first thing ur gonna wanna do is draw a weird oval (the cats body). Then I’ll kinda square off the side that’s gonna be his head and put two triangles on top for ears. This will give you the main shape of the fat cat we’re drawing.

Step 2 | Draw the Cats Face

The next thing you’re gonna wanna do is draw the cats face. I usually start with an upside down triangle for his nose. After that draw his cheeks and chin. I use two elongated ovals for the cheeks and a half circle for the chin. You can use what ever shapes you like. Then I add two half circles above the mouth to represent the eyes.

Step 3 | Draw the Cats Legs

After I’ve added the face, I draw the legs. The legs are just weird noodle shapes cuz I suck at drawing hands and feet (its easier to just draw noodles).

Step 4 | Give the Cat a Tail

All cats need tails for balance, or whatever. So we’ll add one to our fat cat at this point. Much like the legs, the tail is just a noodle shape. This one will of course be longer and come out the back of the cat. Cat tails wiggle in weird ways so get creative with ur noodle tails. If you’re more of a dog person, I also have a tutorial on how to draw a corgi.

Step 5 | Give him Some Pillows to Lay on

In the final step we gotta give this cat something comfy to lay on. So I’ll draw some pillows under him. These are pretty basic squares. I make um a little bumpy so they look comfy. Then I’ll add two half circles that overlap the cats back. This will make it look like he’s sinking into the pillow.

Now you can draw a fat lazy cat!!
