I've got a red rocket on my arm, worked into my sleeve! It's funny enough for the people who get it, and not so up-front as a pawprint. Its also pretty cute, imo!
Might depend on what your interested in though. I'm a canine therian and love dogs, so my tattoo works for me- but I also wanna expand and include my love for other animals too someday. I'm thinking of getting the Latin names of all the critters I've had relationships with along my hipbones, decorated with foliage found in their native regions! :3
