Who is Tabs the Cat? About six 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). 🙂
Guess what plump tabby cat rocked the modeling world this week.
That’s right — Tabs. He starred in five major ad campaigns for MAC, Maybelline and Wet n Wild (among other brands), and he did have to travel, but it was just an overnight trip to New York for the Maybelline shoot, and then a quick hop up to Toronto for MAC.
He’s back home now and resting in his cat tower.
Um, I don’t want to jinx anything, but I’ve got some potentially big news…
Tabs is in negotiations with the Tyra Banks Company to do a cat version of America’s Next Top Model.
Can you believe it!? It’s really exciting, but don’t tell anyone you heard it from me. It’s strictly hush-hush for now. I think People magazine has an exclusive on the story, but since we’re family, I can tell you (off the record).
Tabs and Tyra go way back, so we’re pretty sure it’s gonna happen. Fingers crossed.
Without further ado, here are this week’s kitty modeling jobs starring Tabs.
BTW, he loves hearing your feedback and/or adoration, so please let him know what you think in the comments. 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S. You? Sephora? $50? What do you think? Have you entered this weekend’s $50 Sephora e-card giveaway yet? It ends Monday night, and there’s a gift card looking to land in someone’s hot little hands…
Would like to order a kitty-cat kiss. Extra adorable, please. 🙂

Oh, how I adore Tabs!! His latest work is purr-fect, as always. 🙂
omg. I cannot even tell you how much I wish the custom cat palette by MAC was actually a thing. No joke. MAC’s gotta get in on that one, pronto!
Tabs, I hope the deal with Tyra goes through! You are the perfect choice! Xxoxoxxo

Congratulations Tabs! Bet Tyra learnt all her best modelling tips from you 😉
I would LOVE the cat palette from MAC, oh how I wish it was real!
I would really like a tutorial with silver eyeshadow. That’s a pallette I would have trouble with.
Would love that palette 🙂
I love your blog and your boss is absolutely adorable! 🙂
I wish Maybeliine really made that Color Tattoo shade! And I’d like the matching ears please!
