Short on instructions and the steps move quick. I'll have to keep this in mind when I get a steadier hand. I prefer How to Draw Cats and Kittens: A Complete Guide for Beginners; even this requires google and youtube on how to draw a straight line and a circle because I am that beginner and doing this on my own.

This is a beginner cat drawing book but not a beginner drawing book.

Draw 50 Cats: The Step-by-Step Way to Draw Domestic Breeds, Wild Cats, Cuddly Kittens, and Famous Felines, Lee J. Ames
This guy continues to provide basic clear helpful instructions to assist beginners like me. I pick out 1 or 2 of my favourites and practice them until I feel proficient enough to draw them anytime. Makes for fun conversation starter at parties. ***

This is a fascinating book of sketches of cats. With 50 very different breeds to choose from, there are plenty of options and techniques that people who are learning more about drawing can try to copy.

By following the step-by-step instructions on each page, children (or indeed anyone) can learn how to draw different breeds of cats. It's simple and the results are (mostly) recognizable.

Our girls have really enjoyed drawing cats by following these techniques and making fun pictures. Both of our girls have been bringing home lots of drawing books from their school library and they love learning to draw new and different animals.

Bought this on a whim thinking I'd turn myself into an artist. It didn't happen. Nice, easy to follow directions, but I'm sorry, I've never been able to get the image from a bunch of circles and squares to the final drawing. Is this how artists REALLY draw??

Cats cats cats! If you are looking for some basic drawings to imitate, this provides a good start. Once you master a basic "cat blueprint" you can add character with your own details.
