How to make a paper cat


It’s not difficult to make such cute kittens. Look at the photo, repeat each action and within 20 minutes you will have a paper kitten on your shelf. Or even two. The hardest part of the craft is figuring out how to make the ears. And even a preschooler can handle the rest of the work.
So let's get started. Fold a square sheet of paper diagonally. Expand. Starting from the corner where the fold passes, fold the two sides of the sheet towards the middle.

Bend the lower left part of the craft so that the fold runs along the edge of the triangle - the pointer points to that place.
You should end up with a figure like this.

    There is a “pocket” at the top. Open it and bend the sides as shown in the photo. In this part, it’s not at all clear how you did it. Maybe you cut something off? Because what is in the photo is brilliant to do without it.

    The kitten is cool, but it didn’t work out! I settled on “Unfold the folded sheet as shown in the photo.” It's a pity of course!

    terrible instructions. everything is taken and bent inexplicably. It's impossible to figure it out from the pictures.
