A horizontally oriented black chalk and watercolor drawing depicts several cats huddled together. To our left, a white cat sits upright with its back to us, head turned toward the right. Beside it, a cluster of lying cats features patches of dark gray, brown, and white fur. Loose, dark lines define the feline forms, while washes of light blue and brown fill the composition against a pale blue background.
