Today, Rosie fully embraced the final remnants of summer weather. She relished the experience of lounging under the trees, which are still adorned with leaves (but for a short time).
Among the myriad thoughts she pondered were cold fusion, innovative ways to create nutritionally rich cat treats, how Marnie the dog is gradually complicating her life, and most critically, the outfit she’ll don for Halloween.
In contrast to Tabs, who adored extravagant costumes, Rosie prefers to maintain a look that is both simple and stylish.
I inquired if she required assistance with ideas, but all I received were slow blinks and a flash of her tummy in reply.
As the heat made being outside unbearable, Rosie retreated indoors.
I couldn’t help but notice her neglecting Marnie…
I have a feeling Rosie’s concerned about Marnie wearing a costume that could overshadow her.
Marnie, in contrast, hasn’t given Halloween a second thought. She began binge-watching Gilmore Girls this weekend and is now completely hooked.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty enthusiast,

# Weekly Feature: Sundays with Tabs the Cat – Makeup and Beauty Blog Mascot, Volume 832
Welcome back to another installment of **Sundays with Tabs the Cat**, where we pay tribute to the life, legacy, and irresistible appeal of the one and only Tabs, the feline fashion icon and beauty blog mascot supreme. As we venture into Volume 832, we reflect on the myriad ways Tabs has shaped the beauty industry and captured the hearts of his followers, all while maintaining his flawless sense of style and elegance.
## Who Was Tabs the Cat?
For those who are new to the delightful world of Tabs, let’s kick off with a brief introduction. Tabs was not just another cat—he was a **supermodel**, a **muse**, and the **official mascot** of the beloved **Makeup and Beauty Blog**. His transformation from an abandoned kitten to a worldwide beauty sensation is nothing short of remarkable. With his stunning tabby fur, confident walk, and love for striking poses, Tabs became an adored personality in the beauty realm, frequently appearing in playful photoshoots that blended humor, glamour, and feline finesse.
Tabs served as the inspiration behind numerous makeup looks, product reviews, and beauty tutorials. His presence on the blog contributed a unique charm, rendering the content relatable and enjoyable for readers who cherished both beauty and cats. Even though Tabs passed away in 2019, his essence continues to resonate through the blog, and his memory is honored every Sunday in this ongoing series.
## Tabs’ Influence on the Beauty Sphere
It’s not an everyday occurrence for a cat to ascend to beauty influencer status, but Tabs was anything but ordinary. His influence reached far beyond the blog, inspiring both makeup lovers and cat aficionados. Here are just a few ways Tabs left his mark on the beauty scene:
### 1. **The Emergence of Pet Influencers**
Tabs was truly ahead of his time. Long before the era of Instagram-famous pets, Tabs was already captivating the internet with his photogenic poses and charming character. He set the stage for other animals to become influencers, demonstrating that beauty and fashion can be for everyone, including our furry friends.
### 2. **Source of Creative Inspiration**
Tabs was not merely a mascot; he embodied creativity. His photoshoots often showcased him in whimsical, imaginative situations—from lounging in luxury to parading down fictional catwalks. These shoots encouraged readers to broaden their perspectives on beauty routines, motivating them to play with vibrant colors, textures, and styles.
### 3. **A Lesson on Self-Assurance**
If there’s one crucial lesson Tabs imparted, it’s the significance of confidence. Whether he was showcasing the latest eyeshadow palette or relaxing amid a field of flowers, Tabs radiated self-assurance. His demeanor served as a reminder that true beauty isn’t solely about the products one uses but also about the way one carries oneself. Confidence is the most splendid accessory, and Tabs wore it effortlessly.
### 4. **Merging Beauty with Humor**
Tabs infused the beauty realm with a sense of playfulness. His photoshoots frequently carried a comedic flair, reminding audiences that beauty doesn’t always need to be serious. Whether he was pretending to be a swashbuckling pirate or a fearless superhero, Tabs’ lighthearted antics made the blog enjoyable and kept readers eager for more.
## Unforgettable Moments from Tabs’ Journey
Over time, Tabs delighted us with a plethora of unforgettable moments. Here are a few standout highlights from his remarkable journey:
### 1. **The “Feline Flick” Eyeliner Masterclass**
One of Tabs’ most renowned contributions to the beauty blog was his rendition of the classic cat-eye makeup. Dubbed the “Feline Flick,” this tutorial quickly became a fan favorite, with Tabs demonstrating how to achieve the perfect winged eyeliner look. His accuracy and elegance were unparalleled, and the tutorial remains a staple for beauty enthusiasts after that flawless flick.
### 2. **The Imaginary Tabs x Chanel Collaboration**
Tabs had an incredible talent for making even the most luxurious brands feel accessible. In one of his most memorable photo sessions, Tabs “collaborated” with Chanel, posing with the brand’s signature products. Although this collaboration existed only in imagination, Tabs’ grace and refinement made it feel tangible. His fans could easily envision him as the face of a high-end beauty campaign.
### 3. **The Seasonal Fashion Showcases**
Tabs excelled at capturing the spirit of the seasons. Whether it was a cozy autumn ensemble complete with scarves and pumpkin spice lattes or a summertime beach-themed shoot featuring sunglasses and sunscreen, Tabs had an innate ability to dress appropriately for the occasion. His seasonal photoshoots consistently charmed audiences, offering both beauty inspiration and a dose of feline adorableness.
