Cat

The sign for "cat" is made by forming your hand into what I call an "open F."   This handshape looks like a normal "F" except that the index finger and thumb are separated by about an inch. 

Place the "open F" handshape near the bottom right of your nose and move it out to the right while changing from an "open F" handshape to a normal "F" handshape 

NOTE:  This sign uses just one hand for most everyday conversation.  For effect, I sometimes use two hands when signing stories to young children.

NOTE:  This sign can be done using a "G" handshape that starts near the bottom right of the nose and moves out to the right while changing from a normal "G" handshape to a "closed G" handshape 

Note: The two-handed version of the sign CAT is sometimes used in children's storytelling and/or theater:
