1. Pre-score all of the white dotted fold lines by gently running a craft knife along a metal ruler.
2. Cut around the blue outside edge and any area that is blue. The finished cut-out should not include anything blue (this includes the area around the nose and chin).
3. If you are using double sided tape (recommended), place tape on all of the grey tabs. If you are using glue then follow the numbers on the tabs.
4. The arms and ears need to fold “front to back” where indicated. Turn the cut-out over and use tape or glue to secure both arms and both ears.
5. Build the body by folding and securing tabs A, B, C, D & E.
6. This is the tricky part. The top and bottom of the nose must be cut out properly for this to work. If you can see any blue areas, cut them out using a craft knife. Tab F should be at the top of the body in a basic box shape. Secure tab G to tab F by folding it “front to back” making sure the nose pops out of the hole.
7. Build the head by securing tabs H, I, J and K.
8. Flip the head over and secure the whiskers. The whiskers will fit around the nose and tab L will secure to the back of the nose holding the head to the body.
9. Fold the feet and tail out so that your ship’s cat can stand proudly and help you find your way in stormy seas.
