Whether you like tattoos or not, that's completely your preference. However, regardless of how anyone might feel about tattoos, one must admit that it is art. 

These following cat tatts, or rather 'cattoos,' are so intricate and detailed, they can't help but leave viewers in awe. And if those realistic and elaborate tatts aren't really your style, there are also so many delicate cat tattoos out there that have us gushing over the cutest and simplicity.

This is the cutest version of The Little Mermaid we've ever seen. Or should we say, The Little Purrmaid. 

The talented and creative Kat Swenski is the artist behind KatRaccoon Comics. KatRaccoon Comics is about a new format of comics, a comic/gif hybrid way of telling a story. Have you ever come across a gif and had no idea what was happening? As if you needed some context behind that gif to help the overall story?

Well, there's an entire community on Reddit, r/behindthegifs, filled with artists whose duty is to bring context to those context-less gifs and complete the mystery.

This year has been many things but we like to focus on the good. And the good is that there's a bunch of new 'They Can Talk' Comics by the hilarious and talented Jimmy Craig! 

It's no secret that Jimmy's comics are one of our all-time favs, they're just so clever, creative, and actually make us feel like if animals were to talk, this is pretty much what they would be saying. 

After you're finished digesting this comical bunch of comics, we've got even more treats for you to enjoy!

Ben Hed, commonly known as Pet_Foolery, has done it again! Besides his famous 'Pixie and Brutus' comics, he also creates any animal-related comics, and seems to really enjoy including dinosaurs into that animal-mix! 

And what's a better dinosaur film than Jurassic Park? If you have yet to see Jurassic Park (for some unknown and truly confusing reason), you may not understand just how "clever" this comic truly is. If you have seen the film, then you'll get it without question or a doubt. 

If you're looking for more dino-related comics by Ben Hed, we've got you covered! 

Chinese artist, Mai Mai, has perfectly summed up what life is like after you get a pet and the little day-to-day things that will change because of it/

Photos of landscapes and selfies will be replaced with nothing but your pets. Maybe a few selfies with said pets. Have clean clothes? Not anymore. Pet hair gets everywhere, and it gets everywhere fast. Extra money? Will go to taking care of your pet because they come first. 

It may sound unpleasant but it's honestly the best. And all pet owners can attest to that. There is nothing compared to having a best friend by side, always loving you. Truly, it's unmeasurable. 

Thank you, Mai Mai, for opening up our eyes and showing up the beauty of what having pets in our lives accomplishes.

Meet the talented Em Paquin, an animation student who desperately wanted a cat. We came across some of her lovely re-created digital paintings of popular cat images online and reached out to ask her to explain the meaning behind this project and the goal of painting 100 cats. 

Em explains that the project was originally titled, "Day __ of drawing cats until my parents let me adopt one." Em continues to reveal her longing for a cat of her own, "I wanted so desperately to adopt a cat, and being home for quarantine was the perfect time to introduce a new furball to the family. The only thing in my way was my parents who I've been living with, now that my college courses are online."

"These daily illustrations were a subtle way of voicing my wish to adopt a cat."

On day 21 of the project, Em brought home a new kitten named Beanie. However, Em realized how much she enjoyed drawing cats and wanted to push herself but taking it further, thus setting the goal of drawing 100 cats!

So, what will Em do the moment that goal is reached? Seeing as how she's already on Day 68, the 100th drawing isn't too far away. 

"After that goal is reached, they will probably continue, maybe for a year, or maybe I won't ever stop." 

Well, we're glad to hear that because we love them! Keep up the beautiful drawings, Em! Follow Em on Instagram for daily cat drawings!

Aminals can sometimes be the very best form of therapy. 

Artist Hector Janse van Rensburg has brought attention to mental health in a beautiful form of watercolor comics. The Instagram account is called, @swatercolour, a mix of the words shtty + watercolor. Truth be told, these lovely comics are very far from being shtty.

In talks with a very wise cat, who offers mental health advice, these illustrations are thought-provoking and very wholesome. We could all use a dose of Hector's 'Swatercolor' any day of the week. 

You can find these wholesome comics on Twitter, as well! 

Cats are cats, even in Japan! 

If you're a cat owner, you don't have to understand Japanese to understand the context behind each one of these comics... It would help, no doubt, but it's not completely necessary. 

Artist @kyuryuZ or Cure Z on NekoNavi.jp has a gift for conveying the story past a language barrier. Below are some of the wonderful comics we simply had to share, along with some google translations of the story to each. 

Remember to read from Right to Left

One of our favorite entertaining comic artists, @hannahhillam, has introduced a new kitten into her comics, and into her life. 

Introducing Mouse! Hillam adopted him from @humanesocietysv and decided on the name "Mouserat," Mouse for short. Before coming into her care, "He was fostered by a wonderful woman who said he and his siblings helped her through the stress of working in a hospital during the beginning of COVID. I'm so glad he came home with us because he fits in so well. This cat will play fetch for an hour straight. He loves perching on my shoulder and has quite the purr. He has endless energy and the prettiest green-yellow eyes." 

Hillam sadly lost her cat Bear, July 18th, 2019. Bear and Battleship were often featured in her popular comics and now it's time for Mouse to make his comic debut. According to Hillam, "Battleship was pretty ticked that we brought a strange new cat home but he's warming up and they're even playing together now."

We can't wait to see the relationship between Mouse and Battleship develop! Follow Hannah Hillam on Instagram for all comic updates!
