If not, then cover the headband with the same color felt as your cat ears. Glue the ears to the headband. You can unmistakably make a cat tail by using a long piece of fabric rolled into a long tube and filled with stuffing and then hot glued at the seam. You can pin the tail on the legging seat or attach with Velcro for safety.

Write things like 'meeoow' or 'Happy Meow-o-leen' etc. You can also draw diminutive mouse shapes and cat paw prints.
