A Russian man has outraged animal rights groups around the world after inking his cat with a permanent tattoo on its bald body, and Breaking Celebrity News has photos of his heartless act.
Timur Rimut, 24, of Moscow, filmed the cruel act as his hairless sphinx cat, Coco, lay unconscious on a table while the Latin phrase ‘Carpe Diem’, meaning “seize the day,” was inked across its little neckline.
The inspiration behind the brazen animal cruelty is Rimut’s own tattoo blazoned across his torso, and when Coco’s was completed the pair posed together displaying their matching artwork.
The artist can be seen carefully drawing the design on the pet [expletive] in pen, before sedating her and going to work with the real needles. He also got a new tattoo himself, an image of Coco immortalized on his forearm.
