OMG it's beautiful. It looks just like him. Tears came rolling down my face when I saw it because besides my own tat of my Rocky (who was not my breeding but my first aby), Merlot is from my own breeding lines and was a present from myself and my husband to Rene and Clint and it's an honor that they love him so much and that Rene has honored Merlot (and me in a way). I just showed the picture to Jingles (Merlot's dad) and he looked at me like "hey ma, that's my kid". Thanks for sharing Sandie. BTW, Rene had called me as I was walking in from work to tell me about it and I couldn't wait to get online to see it. Thanks Rene and Clint for loving Merlot so much.

The picture really doesn't do it justice because it is still raw and the camera wasn't clear - Merlot's tail actually has ticking on it! The man is awesome and I am already planning my next birthday's tatoo (since this one was for my 50th birthday and next week is my 51st birthday, it won't be too long. I am going to wait for you Frannie and then we can all go and get one! Except Clint, who is a baby.

Oh Rene!!!!!!! I am so jealous!!! Your tattoo is beautiful!!!!!
I have wanted a tattoo for quite awhile now, but wasn't sure what to get, or where to have it put, so I have a few questions.....

Where is your tattoo?
Did it hurt very much?
How did you get a picture of your cat made into a tattoo?
Was it expensive?

I guess thats all the questions I have for now, but I really want one, and especially now, after seeing yours!!!
I have pictures of Merlin, but what do I do, take them to the tattoo artist, and have him look at them and do the tattoo? What if it doesn't even look like Merlin? I love cats, but I don't just want any cat tattoo, I want it to look like Merlin!

I am a bit scared I guess, not of getting the tattoo, but of it not looking like I want it to, and being stuck with it forever.

Happy Birthday a week early, by the way!!!!!!!
What day is your birthday?
You don't look 51, (from your pictures) You must age very gracefully!

Rene,
That is a cool tattoo!
I thought a few months ago of getting Eeyor on my shoulder, but decided 3 is enough for me! :LOL:
