Sundays With Tabs the Cat, Makeup and Beauty Blog Mascot, Vol. 558

June 16th, 2019 by Karen 13 Comments

Tabs was many things — pro feline football player, fashion phenom, philanthropist, seafood lover, fabulous chef — but one thing he wasn’t was a skilled fisherman. His lack of fishing skills was his secret shame.

He just didn’t have the patience for it. Sure, he loved fishing fashion, designer sunglasses and lounging by the lake with a bottle of bubbly, but the actual fishing part of it? Not a fan, and he REALLY didn’t like getting dirty pond water on his fur.

That being said, he was an award-winning three-time Novato Birding Champion. It’s just that fishing wasn’t one of his strengths.

One time he came home after a day on his yacht with a tall tale about a 45-pound marlin. He kept trying to convince me that he almost caught it, and he called it “the one that got away.” Quite frankly, I think he was full of catnip.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    Love the paintings of Tabs! Tabs was too pampered to hunt for food, lol. He lived the good life!

    My cat doesn’t even like fish! Jiji knows how to catch mousies pretty well so he protects our house.

      Good job, Jiji, patrolling the house!

      Tabs was cray about tuna and all forms of fish in cans. That’s one thing I miss the most, seeing him run into the kitchen whenever a can’s being opened.

    Oh, those pictures are so, so sweet . . . all the more reason to start “you know what”. And I just can’t help but tearing up again, but it’s all good.

    Love, hugs

      Hi L,

      I figure we’ll know when we’re ready. Just got back from a walk and saw the neighborhood kitty mayor, Harris! He stopped by for a quick pet but wasn’t in the mood for anything more than that. Cats are so fickle, but that’s what we love about ’em, right?

    Love the picture of him with a glass of bubbly!

    My baby Viking has started pooping on the decking – sigh. I bet Tabs never did that…

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
