Wear your spirit, one animal at a time
There’s something captivating about the way animals move through the world — graceful, instinctive, fearless. Our animal tattoos let you carry a piece of that wild beauty with you, even if just for a while. Whether you connect with a lone wolf, a watchful owl or a playful fox, this collection invites you to wear your inner nature proudly, poetically, and without commitment.
Lions, wolves, tigers — the creatures we become
Certain animals live within us. They represent the emotions we can’t always express: strength, solitude, courage, loyalty. That’s what makes these tattoo designs more than art — they’re an extension of who you are.
- Lion tattoos: For those who lead with heart and fire. Bold yet regal, these look stunning on shoulders or the centre of the back.
- Wolf tattoos: Pack soul or lone strength — both come through in these evocative designs. Popular on forearms or over the ribs, where their glance can remind you of where you belong.
- Tiger tattoos: Unapologetically fierce, tigers channel fearless confidence. Try one on your upper thigh or shoulder blade for an untamed edge.
Small whispers, subtle meanings 🕊️
Not every spirit roars. Some shimmer quietly. Our lighter, more delicate designs — from curious foxes to graceful birds — are just as expressive, just more subtle in their presence.
- Cat tattoos: Mystery wrapped in elegance, cats work wonders on ankles and wrists.
- Dog tattoos: A quiet ode to devotion and trust. Many place these over the heart or the inside of the forearm.
- Fox tattoos: Witty, wild, and full of charm — foxes are lovely on calves or outer arms where their energy shines through.
- Bird tattoos: Light yet resonant, birds represent the freedom to rise, shift, and see clearly. Try the collarbone or upper arm for a poetic touch.
Creatures with deeper wisdom
Some animals are rooted in symbolism — age-old emblems of memory, legacy, the cycles of transformation. Take elephants, for instance. Revered for their wisdom and silent strength, they look breathtaking across the back or thigh, where their story can unfold fully.
It's also worth discovering our fish tattoos, including timeless koi designs. These flow with meanings of resilience, freedom and change. Placed along the shoulder or down the spine, they make for elegant yet powerful companions.
How to wear your wild
Placement and prep make all the difference.
- Think visibility: Where does the design live best? Do you want it to catch eyes or stay close and personal?
- Prep the canvas: Clean, dry skin helps the ink adhere smoothly and makes the design pop longer.
- Care for your companion: Don’t scrub too hard when showering, and moisturise lightly to keep that ink sharp.
If you're still exploring ideas, wander through our nature tattoos range — it brings flora and fauna together in breathtaking ways. Or take a stroll into our insect tattoos if you're drawn to subtler, symbolic creatures.
For every soul, a species
These aren’t just tattoos. They’re quiet companions, tributes to the parts of us that feel wild, soft, brave or still. With our vegan, EU-certified, waterproof designs, you can align your aesthetic with your ethics — and switch it up whenever life calls for something new.
