As cat lovers, we see felines as the living pieces of art they are, glimpsing in them the muse for creative projects in all medias. From paint to prose, cats provide inspirations unending. This holds true for the art of tattoo as well, and what better subject than a cat to fill a canvas of skin?
If you love the tattoo life and just can’t get enough ink, look to your cat for revelation regarding your next piece. Feline fans will often tell you they got their cat-inspired tattoos thanks to the impact cats have made on their lives.
Your cat is one of a kind, just like you and your imagination. Anything your unique mind’s eye can envision, a tattoo artist can make a reality. Want to get a funny feline forever inked? Great! How about watercolor? Or geometric? Cool, either of those would be fantastic. A purrfect portrait to honor your best friend? Absolutely touching.
Have a look at these cat-inspired tattoos to see where imagination took these cat lovers!
