    She’s really gonna regret that if that cat turns out to be a dog in a cat suit.

    Edit: because how bad the tattoo is made, not because of the idea.

    I would be very disappointed with that tatoo. It barely looks like the original and the original is way more symmetrical. But as long as they like it 👌🏻

      It’s missing the bottom 1/3rd.

      If you cover the area below the glare on the cat photo, it starts to look more similar.

      Tabby cat patterns shift over time as the multicolored hairs of their fur grows. Which is why it’s a dumb idea for a tattoo. But maybe in the moment they just really liked the design.

        Thank you, that actually teaches me something new and adds important context.

        It captured a moment in time, and it’s a representation of a source of love and affection. There are far worse tattoos out there, no need to shit on someone’s artistic decisions.

          Especially because without the cat, it’s impossible to tell what it is either way. The pattern started out abstract and the tattoo is as close as it needs to be. It’s a memory.

    Her name is Sara Brooks, she did not provide the name of the tattoo artist.

      I used to have respect for you, but here you are doxxing cats on Lemmy. Poor Ziggy. Now everyone’s gonna know how to find them in that box.

      Here’s a version that respects Ziggy’s privacy

      And here I was worried that I’d have to make that comment. Definitely looks like the Willshapers or the Elsecallers glyphs.

    Weird how, on the cat, you have ⚫ ⚫ and then 3 tiers of stripes, but on the tattoo, they only do the top 2 tiers, leaving out the one on the bottom…

    I was tempted to do that with our tabby’s markings… until I figured that they kind of look very suggestive in a labial sort of way, lol. To each their own, just not the kind of tattoo I personally was looking for

    Awesome idea! Almost looks like a Mirrors Edge tattoo.

    My brother got an ear tattoo to match the start pattern on his cat’s ear.
