You know what’s great about ankle tattoos? A lot of things actually. The ankle is rarely seen and doesn’t bring much attention to it (unless you want that) and the skin on the ankle looks pretty much the same your whole life, which means your tattoo will still look good when you get older!
So, what are you waiting for? Scroll down to see these cute ankle tattoo designs and find the one you like!

Is there anything cuter than a cat stretching out, even when that cat is a big one, like a leopard?! I don’t know about you, but to me, this design is stunning and looks really realistic!

Everyone loves koi fish for their interesting appearance and beautiful meaning. They’re especially important in Japanese culture where they symbolize luck, prosperity, and fortune.

Some tattoos are not meant to say anything to those who see them and are purely aesthetic, like this interesting piece here! However, even abstract tattoos can have meaning; they’re just not so obvious at first.

Red ink is so underrated, I swear! It looks really good, and I mean, really good. I’m almost certain this tattoo wouldn’t look this cool if black ink was used. So be bold, be brave, and don’t immediately go for the black ink for your tattoos.
