3. We paint the tail section first, making sure to leave the face area unpainted
4. Score the face area on the body pieces and the back of the face piece and pain slip onto the scored area
5. Firm the face piece in place
6. Use a needle tool to roughly outline where the paws will sit, score a triangle in each ear, and outling the area for the nose
7. Paint the cat’s face, avoiding the area for the ears, nose and paws
8. Score and slip the back of the paws and nose and score the paws and nose area on the cat’s face
9. Firm the nose and paws in place
