Tabs the Cat Industries, LLC consistently honors Memorial Day, a national holiday in the United States dedicated to remembering and mourning those military personnel who lost their lives while serving in the U.S. Armed Forces.
Despite holding differing views on some national policies and harboring a certain disapproval for various leaders over the years, Tabs was a firm believer in the greatness of America. He had the U.S. Constitution committed to memory and would often reference specific sections of it.
One of his cherished quotes comes from the preamble:
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
However, he believed that the First Amendment truly encapsulated what America stands for. Without it, he felt the essence of America would be lost. As Tabs often stated, the essence of American democracy is reliant on our ability to critique it.
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
No matter what you have planned this Memorial Day, enjoy yourself.
Cheers!
Your local beauty enthusiast,
Karen

### The Legacy of Tabs the Cat
Tabs was not merely a cat—he was a supermodel, muse, and creative director all wrapped up in one fluffy package. Rescued by beauty blogger Karen of Makeup and Beauty Blog, Tabs quickly gained fame thanks to his photogenic appeal and vibrant personality. From parading down imaginary runways to trying out the latest beauty products (with a paw of approval, naturally), Tabs injected a distinctive style into the beauty blogging scene.
Though Tabs passed away in 2019, his legacy endures through the “Sundays with Tabs” series, which serves as a homage to his fabulous life, often showcasing nostalgic photos, whimsical tales, and recollections of his many escapades.
### Volume 862: A Peek into the Glamorous Past
In Volume 862, readers are offered a nostalgic retrospective of one of Tabs’ most unforgettable photo shoots—his “Golden Hour Glow” campaign for a fictional feline highlighter line. This post features rare snapshots of Tabs soaking up the sun in the late afternoon, his fur glimmering like spun gold. Karen reminisces about Tabs’ insistence on having only the finest organic catnip and a velvet chaise lounge for the shoot, demonstrating once again that he was a diva in the most delightful way.
The post also shares a touching story about Tabs’ remarkable intuition when it came to providing comfort to Karen. “He always sensed when I was having a tough day,” she reflects. “He’d jump into my lap, purring like a motorboat, and remind me that everything was going to be alright.”
### Why Readers Keep Coming Back

For longtime supporters, each volume is an opportunity to reconnect with a beloved friend. For newcomers, it’s an invitation to step into a whimsical realm where cats don couture and each day is a runway.
### Continuing the Tradition
While Tabs may no longer be among us, his spirit continues through Rosie, the current feline resident at Makeup and Beauty Blog. Rosie, a sweet and inquisitive tabby, has gracefully taken up the mantle, occasionally appearing in the Sunday posts. While she possesses her own personality and flair, Rosie pays tribute to Tabs’ legacy by perpetuating the tradition.
