Tabs was inspired by my recent Nordstrom Personal Stylist visit and demanded asked that I pull some outfits for his upcoming trip to Paris.
He wants to freshen his spring wardrobe with some new accessories and described the look he’s going for as “elegant and edgy” (his words).
I dug around and came up with a few possibilities, but I’m having trouble narrowing them down. Because this is Tabs we’re talking about here (one word: diva), I only want to suggest the cream of the crop. Which of these ensembles do you think suits Tabs the best?
Who is Tabs the Cat? About three years ago I befriended a stray, flea-bitten tabby cat with a bad case of worms. I could see he’d fallen on hard times, but his profound knowledge of high fashion and department store cosmetics led me to believe that he was more than meets the eye. We became fast friends, and now he’s actually my boss (and a successful kitty model). 🙂

OMG, that beret made my day!
marmar says
felix is BEGGING to wear that top hat.
….. i wonder if they’ll make me a kitty monocle too..
steph b says
I just love that there are so many choices. I think you need to save the shark costume for Shark Week this summer when Tabs is their spokescat.
I see T-dawg rocking the leg warmers to Maniac. Even a husky cat has to stay fit.
Tatiana Jarquin says
That shark outfit reminded me of Kitty Purry’s (Katy Perry’s kitty) shark bed she tweeted about! SO CUTE <333
Jessi (Lacquered, Painted, Polished) says
I’m not so sure this scarf is Tab’s style (it’s a little racy), but my pug has been begging for one for the longest time. I told her that she is still too young.
This is from etsy, but it is a little NSFW!

Tally says
these pictures were HILARIOUS
Heidi says
So many options, and of course Tabs would rock all of them!
Anyone else have Prince’s “Raspberry Beret” stuck in their head after seeing the Strawberry Beret? Just me, then? Okay…..
Emmaline says
Nope I started singing it too!
Bing says
Go with the beret. It’s French after all, n’est pas?
Liz says
THE STRAWBERRY ONE!!!!!! Oh my god, I’m dying!!! That cat is so effing cute too!
roz says
That strawberry hat is hands down my fave, but since Tabs is male I voted for the crown. I need to go get a cat just so I can be the strawberry beret! If only it were a raspberry beret, it would match my fave Prince song. I’d play it while I made my poor kitty dance with me…
Erin says
Lol this post made my day! Love it! I vote shark sweater, but the top hat is a close 2nd!
Lizzie Montoya says
Strawberry Beret and White Round Collar with Bow Tie are winners! 🙂
Elizabeth says
I voted for the strawberry beret. I think it speaks to Tabs’ feminine side.
Instant Karma (formerly L) says
Ahh, I love the top hat and the little devil horns! If I had to pick one, I’d go with the top hat, though. Tabs is a classy kitty.
Tracy says
Holy geez I was laughing so hard at these pics! Unicorn Hat all the way!!
Saffron says
Oh god I’m dying here, those legwarmers! What sort of twisted mind would think of that and how can I send them a beer?!
I have a sphynx who wears sweaters when I’ve found the bedazzled Richard Simmons look suits him best – maybe I should look into the leg warmers… 😛
Charan says
How do you make the cats wear them?? lol
mine would flip if we catch them to make them wear it…
mn says
I think he would be adorable in the beret athought the top hat w/ lace collar is very dapper.
Mehak says
Tabs was MADE to wear that strawberry beret and bow tie …i can imagine him sitting on a desk wearing that with a quill in his hand giving orders to you…swatch this..swatch that!!lol
Jen W says
Devil hat kitteh is SO ADORABLE!!
My cat decided since he was a kitten that no hooman would put anything on him, he even refuses to wear a collar! Good thing he’s an indoor cat.
Madelon says
Omg, so cute! I want those leg warmers for my cat!
kalcedon says
Go with the one that fits Tabs’s personality the most–>go for the crown :P.
Nina says
i love the kitty leg warmers picture so very very much! 🙂
of our three cats, its prolly napoleon who will be up for some stylin’! 🙂
Karen says
I bet he’d look great in some rainbow ones. 🙂
Nina says

Lulle says
I should soooo get the devil hat for my kitty!
Lulle says

Kerry says
Considering the Christmas tree incident that may or may not have been Tabs’ fault, I’d go with the shark one. 🙂
Milka says
The Beret!!! You CAN NOT visit Paris “La Ville-Lumière” and not wear a beret!
Gabi Luz says
