@SeeSea - What a great monmon cat!!! Congratulations!

Finally got to visit State of Grace and get my Molly Monmon Cat from Horitomo!
He did an amazing job. Just spectacular. I sent several pictures of her and some descriptions of her favorite things, her personality and her character. She *loved* shrimp sushi and got an entire order for her 16th birthday, right before we lost her to cancer. Horitomo created a picture of her in heaven with a halo and surrounded by her favorite things - including that she is surrounded by catnip! The face is perfect. I gave him a decent size square footage and told him he could expand beyond the cat and add other elements. Her face is perfect. When he showed me the sketch, my eyes just teared up.
It was neat to be tattooed on the platform in the shop. It is a little sanctuary with neat drawings, books and items on shelves. He is a quiet gentle soul.
I tried tebori for the whites and I probably would not do it again. For many areas, I didn't even feel the first 4-5 pokes. It just felt like a shoving pressure but there was *no* pain. Then the last several shoves were painful. But around my hip was bad all around. I'm glad I did it, though.

great!
ha ha been through much the same, covering up around my parents for close to a decade before the technicolour cat came jumping out of the bag ;)

Maggie's body is covered in tattoos, and her parents have no idea. So we made a video for Maggie to show her parents the tattoos she's been hiding. Made by Bianca Giaever and This American Life.

Welcome! It's better to join here and learn before the tattoo rather than run here lamenting about the bad tattoo!!!

My Great Aunt Tudie. She was a good person. I aspire to be like her.

Every username I tried with my name was taken, so in frustration I ended up literally being OutOfIdeas

A few friends started calling me omelette after a discussion about the umlaut in my last name (which is German and a bit of a pain in the butt spelling-wise because people think they can just leave out the dots above the vowel but that is plain wrong!). Anyway...umlaut...omelette...omeletta....there you go.

Congratulations @SeeSea! I dig Horitomo designed it stretching out. My childhood cats loved doing that when they found a nice patch of sunlight to lay in. The face is great cuz it's as happy a cat can be with all of its goodies. Also, yes, the pose accentuates its mer-catness.
I wonder how many people now have a monmoncat here on LST?

@Scott R, man you get the good stuff for sure. Tough! Need to see that if you ever come back to the Bay Convention
