Think aloud
Raccoons are strange animals. They invoke both fear and love, yet these contradictory feelings don’t stop us from wishing for a cool raccoon tattoo to show our affection for these odd little creatures.
Whether you prefer simple or intricate designs, you’ll surely find the perfect option here. So, without further ado, let’s get started.
1. Warrior raccoon
It can’t get cuter than this – a harmless little raccoon with a weapon in his hands. If this doesn’t make you smile, I don’t know what will. The combination of soft and rough gives you an adorable contrast that makes up for a great tattoo.
The black and gray style enhances the “warrior vibe,” adding a humorous touch to the tattoo.
2. Raccoon among flowers
A raccoon tattoo is adorable enough by itself let alone when you add gorgeous flowers to the mix. The combination of flora and fauna adds to the cuteness of the design creating an appreciation for the beauty of nature.
Using the black and grey style doesn’t lessen this effect but rather amplifies it. A lack of colors captures the purity and innocence of the tattoo.
3. A raccoon summoning
If you’re up for a funny raccoon tattoo, try this – A raccoon in need calling out your name. This design will lift your spirits and brighten your mood every time you see it.
Despite its seemingly simplistic design, this tattoo’s intricate lines create a realistic picture that causes fascination.
4. Purple raccoon tattoo
This design is for you if you’re more into colorful tattoos. It’s a sad little raccoon surrounded by flowers. His heart is marked with a soft purple color and provides a contrast to this animal’s unfriendly and chaotic nature. However, due to their cuteness, they are often portrayed in a good light.
Purple is the color that dominates the whole design, further intensifying the positive things tied to raccoons.
5. Red raccoon tattoo
Red symbolizes passion and intensity, so this tattoo represents the delinquent nature of these tiny creatures. They often explore trash cans, dig up gardens, and hiss and growl at you if you interrupt them.
So, getting this red tattoo will depict the true behavior of the raccoons but the cuteness of the design will convey the sweetness in all their viciousness.
6. Green raccoon tattoo
If you’d like a tattoo reminiscent of nature, give this a shot. It’s a raccoon holding a halberd like a true little warrior. The design inspires joy and cheerfulness whereas the green invokes feelings of peace and tranquility.
It’s a small arm tattoo that has no intricate shapes or lines, but the beauty is precisely in its simplicity.
7. Realistic raccoon tattoo
If you want a life-like raccoon tattoo, opt for the neo-traditional style. The complex design and its vibrant colors will provide a realistic image and thus invoke cheerfulness and admiration.
If you want to include more of the natural beauty, you can add fruit and flowers to the colorful mix.
8. Cowboy raccoon
Howdy, friends! If you’d like to capture a raccoon’s feisty character, depicting it as a cowboy is the way to go. Besides, isn’t it also just extra adorable?
The dominant black and grey style fades away in the face of the red which sheds more light on the gutsy nature of these animals.
9. Black and grey
This is another example of black and grey being distinguished by the softness of the ink. The mild yet complex design where each line is carefully drawn creates a realistic image that fascinates the eye.
The feistiness of these animals is reduced by depicting a defenseless raccoon surrounded by flowers and ready to surrender.
10. Cartoon raccoon tattoo
This raccoon tattoo is a very simplistic example of the cartoon style yet that’s precisely what captivates us so much. It doesn’t need to be complex or life-like. The cartoon version of this lovable animal delights us enough.
11. Writer raccoon
If you’re curious about more fun designs, this might interest you. It’s a raccoon sitting on books with a pen in his hand and papers torn all around him, typical of a writer.
Depicting a raccoon as a writer and giving it human traits brings a touch of playfulness to the design that makes it all the more adorable.
12. Raccoon among stars
This is both a funny and delightful design. A raccoon, an animal curious about your trash cans, is playing with the unreachable stars. The image provides a contrast that will make you laugh but also warm your heart.
A lack of colors brings the intricate nature of the drawing into focus.
13. Motivational raccoon tattoo
This design is perfect if you’d like to combine fun and motivation. It’s a clever play on words that will delight all linguists. This quote will make you burst into laughter and also inspire you to accept life as it is because what’s done is done.
If you want a similar tattoo of your own choosing, get ready and get creative!
14. Raccoon in clothing
And here we have another fun tattoo! It’s a raccoon with its raccoon head but with a human body and clothes. It’s a unique design that adds a touch of playfulness to it brightening up your mood immediately.
15. A sweet gift
This is another contradictory tattoo putting the wild raccoon in the role of a sweet and meek creature giving you a flower and wanting to make you happy.
It’s a delightful picture meant to make you smile every time you look at it.
16. Drunk raccoon
This is another design of a personified raccoon sitting, slightly intoxicated, with a bottle of alcohol in its hands. It’s a humorous tattoo that adds a touch of cuteness to it.
Its arm placement will make it quite visible and will thus help exude cheerfulness in your overall appearance.
17. Vibrant raccoon tattoo
Here’s another example of a neo-traditional tattoo – an endearing raccoon entangled in bright red flowers. Placed beside a black and grey tattoo, this one provides a drastic contrast and thus brings even more liveliness and joy.
On top of all, the striking colors and lines create an image not too far from a real-life representation. Certain realistic features are omitted to add a more playful touch to the tattoo.
18. Cozy raccoon tattoo

This is a raccoon in its natural habitat – the garbage can. This scene adds humor to the image and gets you in a good mood as soon as you see it.
But humor isn’t the only fascinating thing about this design. It’s actually a complex image created with a series of dots. So, if you want both a funny and admirable tattoo, this is the perfect option.
20. Polite raccoon
Can you imagine it? A vicious raccoon ready to bite you if you stand in its way is standing all polite with food in its hands. The clothes provide more personification and reduce the animal to a tame level where you can even share meals with it.
The raccoon is drawn in black and grey, depicting its true nature, and the personified version brings color to the image. So, if you want an intriguing yet cute tattoo, this is the one.
But let’s be honest, all these tattoos are cute. It’s nearly impossible to pick just one and etch it on your skin. Still, we must manage. There must be one that somehow resonates with you or that you find especially delightful.
I hope this article was of help and good luck at your next tattoo appointment!
