Tabs

Only a few hours till showtime! It’s so exciting… Are you watching the Academy Awards tonight?? 🙂

Tabs is down in SoCal now getting ready for the show. In fact, I’ve had to assist him remotely all day long. I couldn’t fly down to L.A. with the rest of Team Tabs because there was no room in the executive jet for me, so I had to stay behind.

Thank goodness for technology; otherwise, my job would be nearly impossible. I’ve had to coordinate stylists, the best fur handlers in the business, celebrity manicurists — all from Novato!

Wasn’t easy.

In addition to the show, Tabs has several after parties to attend. Of course, he thinks he’s going to sweep every single category he’s nominated in, but even if he loses, you know he’ll lose gracefully.

I’m just really hoping that he and DiCaprio stay out of each other’s way… They got into a tiff last summer while playing tennis, and things have never been quite the same between them. I can’t wait for it to blow over.

Here are five more kitty movie posters (did you see the Best Picture posters from last week?) for movies Tabs starred in last year.

As for tonight, may the best cat win! 🙂

Who is Tabs the Cat?
About seven 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).

Tabs has been a little more diva than usual lately, not that I can blame him for having a big head. He is, after all, in several Oscar-nominated films.

You can’t expect something like that not to feed a cat’s ego. You just can’t.

Wait — you didn’t know that Tabs was also an actor?

Oh, yeah! In fact, he went to Juilliard. He just doesn’t like to broadcast it.

He’s famous in Hollywood for how he totally immerses himself in his roles. It looks effortless on screen. You forget that you’re watching Tabs the Cat, world-renowned kitty supermodel and three-time winner of People Magazine’s World’s Sexiest Cat.

He spends months researching each role, which, by the way, can be super annoying. I’m not even going to tell you the things he asked me to do when he was researching The Tabby of Wall Street, but let’s just say that there were a lot of crazy parties involved, and I had to clean them all up.

So annoying…

Anywho, here are the posters for the Cat Academy Award-nominated movies he’s in. I have to take them to the frame shop and get them mounted this week. Then they go up on the walls in his trophy room, formerly known as my office.

P.S. Don’t forget to watch the Cat Academy Awards next Sunday night. 🙂

Tabs is still salty about the Niners losing in the playoffs this month. He thinks they totally should have made it to the Super Bowl, and if they had, he thinks they would have won.

But that’s the nature of sports, right? You can’t win ’em all.

Now he’s all about baseball! He says the Giants are going to win it all, and he even got a new outfit to show his team spirit. Here’s a clip of him modeling it this afternoon… 🙂

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addicts,

Karen and Tabs

P.S. Thank you for stopping by. Tabs appreciates it and sends his warmest kitty hugs. Hope you had a nice, relaxing weekend.

Oh, question for you: have you tried any products from the new Terrifically Tabs furcare line?? Inquiring minds want to know… 🙂

It’s game day, and you know what’s up. 🙂

Ya know, a lot of people think of cats as dainty, aloof and too sophisticated for the gritty gridiron, but nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, Tabs loves football, loved all the years he played it professionally for the Mill Valley Wildcats, and even in his retirement, he still plays for fun in a summer cat league.

This Super Bowl is a special one for Tabs because it also marks the first one for which he’s released his own limited makeup collection of Super Bowl Cat Paw Quints (available in Seahawk and Bronco). If cats and people like them, he’ll release one for every team next season.

We’ll definitely be watching the game this afternoon. I did end up making some veggie burger patties, too. I’ll let you know how they turn out when we barbecue them later today.

Which team are you rooting for in the game? I think we’re pulling for Denver…mostly because Seattle beat the Niners a couple weeks back (the nerve!).

Oh! Almost forgot… Here are pics from Tabs’ kitty modeling portfolio this week. He believes they turned out well.

Big disappointment this year. Poor Tabs… With the Super Bowl coming up, Tabs had hoped to land a few choice commercials to air during the big game, but his agent didn’t send out his demo reel early enough.

Needless to say, Tabs is on the market for a new agent (let me know if you know anyone).

It’s a shame, really, if you think about it. Having played professionally for the Mill Valley Wildcats (he played tight end) before getting into kitty modeling, Tabs is positioned perfectly to promote products to the cat-loving football crowd.

Oh, well… At least it wasn’t a total bust. Tabs did land one Super Bowl commercial on his own, without any help from his agent, I might add, that will air next weekend during the game. I’m posting a first look for you down at the bottom of this entry, but please don’t pass this around. This is only because you’re a big fan. I really shouldn’t be sharing it this far ahead of the game, but I don’t think my boss would mind…

Tabs wanted to do something a little different for his column this week — share a look into his personal life outside the realm of high-intensity kitty modeling.

You know what they say: all work and no play makes tabby a dull boy. And he’s a firm believer in relaxation/meow time.

Right now he’s on the couch getting ready to watch the big 49ers-Seahawks football game. As you know, he played professionally for the Mill Valley Wildcats before getting into kitty modeling…

Hope you’re having a great weekend so far. Talk to you soon. 🙂
