The highly anticipated Tats 4 Tails is back for its sixth year, offering a unique opportunity for tattoo enthusiasts and animal lovers alike to make a lasting difference in the lives of animals in need,
Running from 27 January to 2 February 2 2025, this annual tattoo-a-thon promises more heart than ever before. Participants can get a special Mark 4 Love tattoo while raising crucial funds to help animals across the region.
A permanent mark of compassionTats 4 Tails isn't just about tattoos - it's about making a permanent impact. Each tattoo purchased contributes directly to a range of life-saving initiatives for animals, from vaccinations and microchipping to sterilisation programmes and finding forever homes. As Belinda Abraham, spokesperson for the Cape of Good Hope SPCA, explains, With each Mark 4 Love, you'll be helping animals to live disease-free, safely, and in loving homes forever. Just as a tattoo lasts a lifetime, so too will the gifts your tattoo provides.
This meaningful campaign aims to raise R100,000 over the course of the seven-day event, with a goal of completing 125 tattoos. Each tattoo purchased - priced at R800 for a 7cm x 7cm design - will support the SPCA's mission to create a better future for animals, leaving a lasting legacy of care, safety, and love.

Over the past five years, local celebrities have rolled up their sleeves to get inked by renowned tattoo artist Clinton Naidoo of Primal Culture Tattoo Studio.
