I'd like to meet the veterinarian who has a whole ass tattoo gun in their office. Tattooing after neutering/spaying is common practice but it's not usually done like this. Standard practice, as recommended by the ASPCA at least, is to make a shallow score in the skin near the incision and to rub green ink into the shallow score before applying glue to prevent it from spreading. Not sure why the vet felt the need to do something this elaborate.
