An Ol' Broad's Ramblings
Help?
Brat has had this cat…well, she’s suppose to be Short Person’s, but that’s not important….since she was about 2 months old, and as the cat has been getting older, she’s been losing fur on her stomach. Well, now that it’s pretty much bald, guess what she had hidden under it! A bloomin’ tattoo!
Obviously, said feline wasn’t all that happy at being held in such a position, but oh well. Heh. The issue is…what in the world is that, and why would anyone tattoo a kitten’s stomach area? Can anyone tell what that is, and has anyone ever heard of tattooing a kitten? I’d guess that someone might do it as an identifying mark if the cat ever got lose, and lost, but since they’ve had the cat since she was itty bitty….just doesn’t make any sense.

Tattooing is an identifier for cats in the US – like microchipping. But it would be a registry number, not a design.
At first glance, I thought it was a Celtic cross, but it looks like there is a bottom crosspiece. That would make it an Old Believers cross.
Either way, it’s strange. Are you sure it’s not some bizarre skin coloration?
Google “tattooing a cat” to get more information. They do it in Russia for vanity apparently.
Oh, we’re quite sure it’s not discoloring. It rather reminded of the Celtic crosses, but then…something odd… I dunno. I guess we’ll have to investigate further. Right weird! LOL
Its 12:00 midnight do you know where your kids and/or cats are? I can tell you did not wait up for them!
Heh. Must have been that night she was out with the sailors?
