Insane Russian Man Gives His Cat a Tattoo!

‘Timur Rimut’ is from Tatarsan, Russia and he is a bit insane. He filmed himself permanently marking his hairless sphinx Coco with the phrase ‘Carpe Diem’ which is Latin for, ‘Seize the day.’

He started off by drawing the design on the cat with a pen and then he sedated the helpless cat, and proceeded to give the cat a tattoo. It’s the same crappy tattoo that Timur has on his chest. You can watch the video above, but it is quite disturbing…just a warning.

This video has sparked outrage all over the world and animal rights campaigners are disgusted. A spokesman for UK charity Cats Protection had this to say:

“We are shocked to see these images. As a charity that cares passionately about cats and seeks to inform the public about responsible pet ownership, we do not agree with people treating pets as fashion accessories in anyway. Animals should be anaesthetised for veterinary reasons only, not cosmetic purposes. We hope that people will realise that it is unacceptable to treat animals in this manner.”

And we thought pet owners that put sweaters on their dogs were bad…
