A woman has had the faces of her five dead cats inked onto her back.

Animal lover Fran Bailey wanted to have the five felines permanently etched onto her skin so that she can always remember them.

The images on her back of Tinky, Woody, Mr Brush, Mr Spock and Bella are all life-size.

Bailey said: "I love my cats and I love my tattoo. A lot of people who have lost pets can relate to it.

"I adopt sick cats because I wanted them to have somewhere to go - I took them home so they could live out their last days in comfort.

"If I keep going, tattooing all the pets I will have in my lifetime, I'd just be covered in cats."

The 23-year-old added that the tattoo tribute first started off as small paw prints, but then expanded because she wanted to incorporate parts of each cat's personality.

That would rule doggystyle out for me.

If she wanted tattoos of her cats to remind her... why did she have them tattooed on to her back? Having said that, she sounds very caring, taking in sick cats and looking after them.

Is is a bit daft she had them on her back,pretty difficult for her to see them I would think
