r/Cattatts

A nod to the the azulejos (blue tiles) that are all over Portugal. I am collecting cat tattoos on this leg.

hi guys i just wanted to share my new tattoo i got yesterday im just so happy with her she is absolutely adorable and i wanted to know if other people thought so too ☺️ i know it’s probably basic compared to others posted on here but im just so proud to add her to the collection 🥲

First sitting down. I am so excited to post this!

A little awkward to photograph because it’s on my forearm/wrist. I miss her every moment of every day. She was my best friend and was literally all I had/I have no family and most of my friends have died. My landlord’s friend went into my room while I was in the hospital and for reasons that no one knows decided to smash her head in with a rubber mallet. She was the sweetest cat ever, a ragdoll that loved to cuddle and follow me around everywhere I went. Her favorite toy was the caps of those apple sauce pouches; she loved to play fetch with them.

I didn’t even get to see or keep her body or anything of hers. My landlords friend tossed her body in the woods behind the house, and threw her things away. I hope those men get what they deserve in life for what they’ve done and the sweet soul they took from this earth. I miss you so much Clementine ♥️

I got this as my first tattoo after years of telling myself I would get one but needed "the right design" 😹

Floof was my first cat and a best friend of mine and a super sweetie, so getting a fluffy black armband to memorialize her was 100% "the right design"

I'm so glad this subreddit exists!

Got this piece done a couple days ago, cat is based off my own potato.

My son has a large growth in his left ear (not pictured for sensitivities) and I'm not sure yet what can be done for him. Its quite big its developed in the past month. His vet referred me to a place in greenville an hour away from my hometown asheville. Im awaiting their call. My city and I as an artist have been heavily affected by the hurricane and now war prices. I used to be fine existing off of just tattoos and now I'm selling prints in a bar 3x times a week, tattooing and a barista and also doing commissions and I'm barely scraping by. I think skill trade and bartering is a good way to rebel against capitalism anyway. I'll do anything for my cat to be ok so if any experienced vets are willing to treat him in exchange for thousands in sleeve work or whatever tattoo or art commission you desire I am fully willing and able and glad. Even if its just to keep prices with in my budget and save my son. He's only 12 he loves everyone and everything he meets. He gives hugs and talks back like a person. He was my 16th birthday gift to me and I'd just about give up my life for him. I understand some Vets are more strict about tattoos, not so much in AVL but they can also be hidden. I can do most anything in the tattoo realm. Im decent with mimicking styles and I have my own style too. Ive been dipping my toes into realism as you can see my semi realism Giger inspired Ellen Ripley wasnt too shabby was also a big stomach piece. I'm 28 and female and light handed with 5 years of shop only experience and 2 year traditional apprenticeship. but I know how to tattoo traditional if you like fat lines and texture to your tattoo. I can also paint and I do realism quite well on paint. If you DM me i can send my portfolio over.

I wanted to share my tattoo that I got after my cat passed away after 17 years. She was the love of my life, so getting the tattoo was the easiest decision I’ve made. First photo is when it was freshly done, and the 2nd is current - 1.5 years after. It healed beautifully and I love the soft look it has.
