What is cat scratch on tattoo?

A cat scratch on a tattoo can potentially cause damage to the inked area, leading to a blurred or distorted tattoo. It can also increase the risk of infection if the scratch breaks the skin and exposes the tattoo to bacteria. Additionally, scratching or picking at a healing tattoo can delay the healing process and potentially cause scarring. It is important to keep the tattoo clean and covered until it is fully healed to prevent any complications. If a scratch does occur, it is recommended to clean the area with soap and water and apply a bandage or ointment to promote healing. It is also advisable to avoid any direct contact with animals or other potential sources of infection during the healing process.
