Meow, says the kitty cat! Design your very own cat puppet with whiskers, googly eyes and why not add a tail. For the body of the cat puppet we used construction paper, however try using felt so your cat can have some soft fur. The pom-poms add adorable whiskers that give your cuddly cat character.
Star by cutting out a face, mouth and body from the construction paper. All measurements are approximate; face 4 3/4″ x 3 1/4″, mouth 4 3/4″ x 1 3/4″ and the body 8″ x 4 3/4″.
Cover the bag with orange construction paper. Cut an oval from the brown paper for the body.
Glue the folded 2 1/2″ red circle on the inside of the mouth. Cut a 1″ pink circle for the cat’s tongue. Glue half of the pink circle on the inside of the mouth. Glue two brown small pom poms above the cat’s tongue.
Cut a small pink triangle for the cat’s nose and glue above the two pom poms. Glue on the googly eyes. Using a brown marker draw on the cat’s whiskers.
Cut two small triangles for the cat’s ears and glue to the back of the head.
