How to draw a siamese cat

A slim, elegant Siamese with large ears, almond eyes and the classic dark points on its ears, face, paws and tail. Six steps.

Beginner siamese cat

6 steps

A circle for the head and two large triangle ears, then the face with almond-shaped eyes, a small nose, mouth and whiskers, a slim body, the back legs and paws, and finally the long tail with the darker Siamese markings on the ears, face, paws and tail. Six steps.

What you need

A pencil, an eraser and a sheet of paper are enough. Draw lightly at first, then trace the lines you want to keep when your siamese cat is finished.

  1. Step 1 of 6

    Draw a circle for the Siamese cat's head

    Start with a clean circle for the head. Position it near the top of your page so there is room for the cat's long body and tail.

  2. Step 2 of 6

    Add large triangular ears

    Draw two tall triangles rising from the head. Siamese cats have prominent ears, so make them wide at the base and sharply pointed.

  3. Step 3 of 6

    Draw the elegant Siamese face

    Add two slanted almond-shaped eyes, a small dark nose and a curved mouth. Draw three whiskers extending from each cheek.

    Beginner tip: Angle the eyes slightly upward at the outer corners to capture the breed's alert expression.

    Build the slim body and front legs

    Draw two long curves from the neck to form a narrow pear-shaped body. Add straight front legs and two small paws at the base.

    Finish the tail and dark points

    Draw a long tail curving upward, then shade the ears, face, paws and tail. These darker points make the finished drawing clearly recognizable as a Siamese cat.

That's it! You have drawn a siamese cat.

Trace your favorite lines a little darker, erase any unwanted pencil marks and add color if you would like.
