Cat Clive died in June, and now Kate Beckinsale has had the image of the animal tattooed on her forearm.
Kate Beckinsale (50) processed the death of her cat with a new tattoo: Taking to Instagram, the actress posted a photo of her forearm, which now features a perfectly shaded drawing of Cat Clive’s head.
The face of the pet is entwined with fine graphic stars, signs and circles. Regarding the pictures and a video showing the piercing process, the actress writes: “It really helped” and thanks her tattoo artist.
Beckinsale: ‘My heart is absolutely and completely broken’
Clive died in June this year at the age of 15 or 16. Even then, Beckinsale had her grief expressed with an Instagram post. You can’t even look at photos of the cat at the moment, Beckinsale wrote in it. “Every single corner of my house feels like it should be there. If anyone is expecting a response from me, that’s not going to happen for now, I’m sorry.” And clarified: “My heart is absolutely and completely broken.”
In 2019 she spoke to “People” about the long-haired cat: So they got it when their daughter Lily Sheen (24) was little and reported surviving cancer.
For years, the cat was one of the actress’ favorite motifs on Instagram. They liked to pose together for the followers – often both with painted nails and in funny disguises.
