I don’t know how Tabs did it. When I spend two days “in the woods,” I’m ready to tap out, but Tabs was renowned throughout the feline backpacking and wilderness communities for his ability to live off the land for weeks, even months.
Must have been all those years he spent hustling between kitty modeling jobs. It made him tougher than the average tabby.
Next week we’re going camping up along the Russian River, and per (purr) usual, I’ll be in charge of navigation on the drives there and back.
I’m not worried because I learned the secret to navigation from Tabs. It was his tried-and-true map tip. Up is north. Down is south. West is left. East is right. And always use a compass. 😉
Speaking of camping, though, Tabs would have laughed at El Hub’s campfire building skills. Tabs was known to create a roaring campfire with nothing more than two sticks and his paws.
One thing we usually do get right are the s’mores. Yup, my marshmallow roasting skills are superb, but that’s only because Tabs taught me that secret too.
(The more marshmallows you use, the more chances you have to satisfy your tum. 😉)
That reminds me of the time Tabs designed a series of cat tents for REI. Some of the designs were sleek and simple, like this one, but there were also luxury options for the cat who believes that more is more (Tabs).
His personal tent was outfitted with a solar powered gravy dispenser and genuine Louis Vuitton print (of course it was). 🙂
