In various cultures, cats represent luck (good or bad), intuition, femininity, and the boundary between worlds. The meaning of your cat tattoo depends on the style, pose, and personal story you bring to it.

Blackwork tattoos use solid black ink in bold, graphic compositions. The style ranges from large filled areas and heavy patterns to intricate designs that rely on contrast between ink and bare skin.

The back provides the largest continuous canvas on the body, ideal for detailed scenes and large-scale compositions. Upper back pieces are easy to conceal, while full-back tattoos make a dramatic statement.
