Cats in Space Coloring Book Review: The Purr-fect Combination of Felines and Cosmic Chaos

As a self-proclaimed spooky cat lady, there are certain things I'm almost guaranteed to buy when I see them.

Cats? Yes.

Space? Also yes.

A coloring book that combines both into one wonderfully ridiculous package?

Take my money.

Today I'm looking at Cats and Space, a coloring book that embraces pure silliness and asks an important scientific question:

What are cats doing when they stare at empty corners of the room?

Based on this book, the answer appears to be intergalactic conquest.

First Impressions

The first thing I noticed is that this book appears to be created by the same publisher or artist behind another coloring book I recently reviewed featuring giant cats causing mayhem.

The style is very similar:

• Playful artwork
• Cartoon cats
• Absurd situations
• Plenty of humor

The book feels sturdy and includes some useful extras right from the start.

Helpful Features

Before you even get to the coloring pages, you'll find:

• Coloring tips
• A test page for experimenting with markers and pencils
• A clean, easy-to-color layout

I always appreciate test pages because they save you from discovering too late that your favorite marker bleeds through paper like a tiny colorful disaster.

The Artwork: Pure Cat-Powered Nonsense

This coloring book doesn't pretend to be serious.

Instead, it fully commits to the idea that cats have secretly colonized the universe.

The result is a collection of illustrations that range from adorable to completely ridiculous.

And honestly, that's part of the charm.

Space Cat Highlights

Laser Paw Cat

The very first page sets the tone perfectly.

A cat is floating through space while firing lasers from its paws.

That's it.

No explanation.

No context.

Just feline laser destruction.

Science may never recover.

DJ Space Cat

One of my favorite pages features a cosmic DJ cat spinning records somewhere among the stars.

I couldn't decide whether the cat was:

• Performing at an intergalactic dance club
• Broadcasting music across the galaxy
• Or simply knocking things off a table in space

All three possibilities seem equally likely.

Pizza Cat

Another illustration features a cat casually floating through space on a giant slice of pizza.

As transportation methods go, it's certainly more interesting than my car.

Wizard Cats

Several pages feature magical cats casting spells and generally looking like they belong at a wizarding school somewhere beyond the asteroid belt.

Personally, I support the idea that every fantasy story should include at least one wizard cat.

Shooting Star Cats

One illustration suggests that shooting stars might actually be cats racing through the cosmos.

Honestly?

That explanation is at least as believable as some of the things my cats do around the house.

Fireball Cat

There is also a cat that appears to have become some sort of cosmic fireball.

Whether it's a meteor, a magical explosion, or simply the result of knocking over something it shouldn't have touched, remains unclear.

Alien Planet Invaders

Several illustrations show cats attacking or invading distant planets.

The cats seem surprisingly committed to expanding their territory.

Given how seriously house cats defend a favorite chair, I suppose conquering entire planets is the logical next step.

The Emperor Cat

One page immediately made me think of the character Emperor Palpatine from the Star Wars universe.

The resemblance is hard to ignore.

Apparently unlimited power becomes even more dangerous when combined with whiskers.

Taco Cat in Space

Yes.

There is a taco cat.

In space.

And yes, I immediately remembered the famous palindrome:

Taco Cat

Spelled backward, it's still Taco Cat.

This may be the most important educational lesson in the entire coloring book.

A Few Weaker Pages

Not every illustration is equally strong.

There are a couple of pages where the artwork feels a little rougher than others.

One moon-attacking cat looked like it could have used a bit more detail.

There's also a random unicorn that feels slightly out of place compared to the rest of the book.

It almost looks like an art asset that wandered in from another dimension.

That said, once colored, these pages will probably fit right in with the rest of the cosmic madness.

The Gachapon Cat

One of my favorite illustrations featured a cat that reminded me of a gachapon toy I picked up from Japan.

The resemblance was close enough that it instantly became one page I'd most like to color first.

Sometimes a coloring book page just clicks with you for no logical reason.

This was one of those moments.

Black Holes and the Cat Dimension

Toward the end of the book, we encounter black holes.

Naturally, this led me to an important theory:

Black holes aren't cosmic phenomena.

They're portals.

Specifically, they're portals back to the mysterious Cat Dimension—the place cats disappear to when you call their names and they pretend not to hear you.

I have no evidence for this.

But I also can't completely rule it out.

Paper Quality

The paper quality is similar to other books from this publisher.

It's suitable for:

• Colored pencils
• Gel pens
• Light marker use

As always, if you're using alcohol markers, place a protective sheet behind the page just to be safe.

Final Verdict

Cats and Space isn't trying to be a masterpiece of fine art.

It's trying to be fun.

And it succeeds.

If you enjoy:

• Cats
• Space themes
• Silly artwork
• Humorous coloring books
• Lighthearted stress relief

Then this book is likely to make you smile.

The illustrations are creative, quirky, and packed with enough feline absurdity to keep cat lovers entertained for hours.

Is it scientifically accurate?

Absolutely not.

Is it fun?

Absolutely.

And sometimes that's all a coloring book needs to be.
