Animal Tattoo Designs Ideas for Men and Women

Top 27 Trendy Animal Tattoos For You To Get

These days pets have become quite a popular topic. Dog and cat videos are getting more likes than the posts of a lot of fashion bloggers now. This fascination with the animal kingdom is not recent but the extent of the admiration has surely increased. Could be because people are fond of pets more now or because the concept of having a spirit animal is attractive to us.

Spirit animal or your own pet, getting a tattoo of the animal is a common and popular thing now. You just need to take care of a few things and then you're good to go.

Where and what size can your tattoo be?

Animal tattoos are not something easy in the sense of deciding the area because it actually depends on the design you've chosen. If you want to get the face of your puppy or a huge tattoo of your spirit animal, then go for a wider area, like the bicep or the thigh or calf. Tiny or small animal tattoos surely are possible but they're not going to be as clean and realistic as you'd like them to be because the tattoo artist will have to cut down some details to make sure that your small animal tattoo looks good and doesn't get messed up over the years.

Tattoos get smudged years down the line if the design is clumsy. Any professional tattoo artist will tell you that to make sure that you don't regret having the tattoo later.

So, if you don't want a big tattoo, get a paw print or snout or something of the sort as a small tattoo. Small, full body or face tattoos don't have as much scope of definition as a medium one would.

Always remember, talk to a professional tattoo artist. Sit with them, discuss your design and then finalize it. The artist will be making your tattoo so they'd obviously know what's better.

So let's get to the list now and help you see how beautiful an animal tattoo can be. Here are 27 animal tattoos for you, divided into a few categories.
