Tat-Tuesday!
🕑 Added 2024-08-13 17:34:01 +0000 UTCThis weeks tattoo has a much shorter back story so don’t worry, I’m not going to write a whole novel this time!
Once I had the tattoo itch I knew I wanted to get something for my cats. I wanted something abstract that wouldn’t be recognizable by anyone who looked at it. Having a big Batman symbol on my shoulder taught me that easily recognizable logos are an instant way to have strangers start talking to you.
I was playing around with a few ideas but in the end I came up with the idea of getting both of their noses tattooed on me. I didn’t want their literal noses so I designed two triangles that represented a cat nose and copied the patterns onto those. It’s simple but effective!
And if you don’t know, the black and white one is Kramer (He), and the two faced one is Harvey (she)!

i LOVE abstract tattoos so much!! I don't have any tats but I want my first one to be something like this, a design that looks cool and that only I/very few would know the origin of. Great tattoo and backstory! ❤️❤️

Love it! There’s a random cat in my neighbourhood who is half black half ginger like yours… I nicknamed him Slade. Didn’t even think about Harvey!
