Not everyone is able to own a pet and children are often ask for one, so we’ve created a little print out cat and dog for you to create your very own family pet!

Simply print out the artwork page below and stick your print out onto to card before cutting it out to make your pets super sturdy! Next color in the animals, carefully cut along the dotted lines then fold along the fold lines on their bodies and stick the back of the heads onto the top part of the fold. Now all your need to do is give your pets names!
