Look closely at this adorable cat, curled perfectly into a fluffy ball for the coziest nap. Its tail wraps snugly around, with tiny paws tucked in tight as little Zs float above. Use soft colors to make its comfy round cushion feel extra squishy, maybe coloring gently with a crayon on its side for a cozy texture, and choose a peaceful shade for the Zs.
