Our boy Tabs was a giant cat with a fair BIGGER coronary heart. He preferred to keep up his popularity as a self-centered diva, however in case you knew the true Tabs, you knew that he was truly very giving and candy and had a tender spot for underprivileged cats.
As a lot as he liked publicity, we frequently did issues beneath the radar, like, yearly we hosted a number of bake gross sales at the side of Bouchon Bakery in Yountville, California, and between you and me…every of these occasions pulled in massive bucks for numerous cat charities and worthy causes, together with Camp Catnip, a nonprofit Tabs began to assist younger kittens in want.
That was simply the tip of the iceberg, although. Tabs additionally hosted elite annual fundraisers all world wide from Milan to Paris, Monaco, Barcelona, Rio and Tokyo. Sure, these have been lengthy days and nights, however I didn’t thoughts in any respect as a result of I knew they have been for the kittens.
The one journey he didn’t take me on was the charity live performance he hosted on the moon (!). His engineering workforce, at the side of NASA, terraformed 200 acres of lunar panorama!
Yeah! I do know! I used to be secretly relieved when he instructed me that I needed to stay at dwelling base to water his crops…

To this present day, Rosie is deeply envious of that well-known moon live performance challenge Tabs placed on all these years in the past, however she does what she will be able to. Like, to assist cats and kittens within the North Bay Space who’re involved in science, Rosie began internet hosting month-to-month bake gross sales.
They increase good cash. Plus, she finds the scientific points of baking fascinating.
After which this final weekend I assisted Rosie with a group enjoyable run for cats in coding. As you possibly can think about, it was a giant success.
Yup, by no means a boring second round right here. 🙂
