You don't need to build your own library. You use an existing library
like prototype for all of the nice functions and features it has. You
build your own behaviours for your current site of application. No
library makes buttons dance like crazy around the screen but they do
provide you with nice tools so that you can write a behaviour (= a set
of rules for how things on your page should behave under the control
of javascript) that makes certain buttons dance when they should.

You can use both jquery and prototype at the same time (with some fix
I remember reading about) but you probably wouldn't want to. If you
know and like Prototype then stick with it. I dont know of any tab-
examples (for either library) but there is bound to be some. In fact,
Google delivered a few that looks good:
http://www.google.com/search?q=prototype+js+tab+example

Remember that:
CakePHP does the heavy server-side stuff and backend logic.
Prototype does GUI interaction and ajax.
HTML makes up the foundation of the page.
CSS makes the things look good.

It is rare that you will find an example that uses all these in
exactly the way you want. The basic skills you need these days is to
be able to combine an example of good-looking CSS with an example of
cool ajax with an example of solid application logic...

If you like CakePHP.org, the only "example" you are likely to find is
the actual page. But unfortunately for you it uses jquery so the
javascript would need to be re-written or replaced with some prototype
equivalent.
