This cat dot-to-dot printable uses twelve numbered points to form a simple cat-head outline. Connect the numbers in order from one to twelve, then join twelve back to one to close the shape. A separate solution image shows the completed boundary.
Find the next number before drawing
Begin at one and look for two. Identify both points before drawing the connecting line, then repeat for the next pair. The activity follows numerical order rather than choosing whichever dot happens to be nearest.
Keep numbers and points distinct
Draw from the small dot itself, not from the printed numeral beside it. Pointing to a number and then its associated dot can help clarify that difference. A ruler is optional; the printed solution uses straight segments, but a freehand line can still show the intended sequence.
Remember the closing connection
After reaching twelve, return to the first dot as the instructions state. That final line completes the lower boundary. Without it, the sequence is almost complete but the outline remains open.
Compare with the reference image
The answer page shows the connected points in the same positions. If a line crosses the interior unexpectedly, retrace the number sequence to see whether a point was skipped or connected out of order. The intended path forms the outside of the head, including two pointed ears.
Add your own features afterward
Once the outline is complete, draw eyes, a nose, whiskers, or an interior pattern. Those additions are open-ended and are not supplied as puzzle answers. The fixed part of the activity is the twelve-point sequence and its closing connection, not a required facial expression or color.
