What can we use if we can't find the 'big block' for the body or the 'long thin block' for the tail in Build Mode?

If you can't find a 'big block' or 'long thin block', use stacked floor tiles or a couch/bench as the cat body and a fence/railing piece or thin slab as the tail, then resize and paint them with the color tool.

My head or legs keep clipping through the body—how can we fix alignment when placing blocks?

Use the move and rotate tools in Build Mode, toggle grid snap for finer placement, and place each leg and the head one at a time, then save and exit to walk around your cat to check alignment.

How should we change the activity for younger kids or older kids?

For younger kids simplify by using larger pre-made furniture pieces for body/head/legs and helping with the color tool, while older kids can add detailed decals for eyes and fur patterns, craft accessories from the catalog, and fine-tune shapes with resize and rotate.

What are easy ways to personalize or extend the finished cat after saving the build?

After saving and walking around your cat, personalize it by painting fur patterns with the color tool and decals, adding a collar or bow from the catalog, building a cat bed or play area on the lot, and then take a screenshot to share on DIY.org.
