Humane Society of Southern Arizona Launches Giving Tattoos Day to Combat Shelter Overcrowding

The Humane Society of Southern Arizona (HSSA) announces the launch of Giving Tattoos Day, aimed at raising awareness and funds to combat shelter overcrowding through spaying and neutering. The campaign name is a fun twist on Giving Tuesday and highlights the green tattoo pets receive after their spay/neuter surgery. Over the last year, HSSA has performed over 7,000 spay and neuter surgeries. From now through December, supporters can donate any amount to help homeless pets and receive a custom temporary tattoo as a thank-you.

Local Partners

This campaign is proudly sponsored by several local Tucson partners, including Tucson Hop Shop, JoJo’s Restaurant, Humble and Grand Tattoo Co., Pima Federal Credit Union, and Tattoo Manufacturing International, the world’s largest temporary tattoo manufacturer, based right here in Tucson.

In Person Event on December 3rd:
JoJo’s Restaurant (5–9 PM) – 76 W Washington St, Tucson, AZ 85701

Join us for a cat-themed celebration featuring information about our Community Cat services and Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) efforts. Enjoy live music and receive a tattoo with every donation. Jojo’s will be donating 10% of sales from 5 - 9 pm that Tuesday.
