The Epic Catservatory Sun-Puddle, Nit-Picking In The Garden & The Pet Show on the Pet Parade Blog Hop No: 248 ~ Hosted by Rascal & Rocco Co-Hosted by Basil & Barking from the Bayou

Pawesome Friday Greetings Furriends

Welcome to the Pet Parade and our weekly news round up!

Well we've had a really busy week again, Fudge flaked out in the catservatory yesterday morning as he just couldn't keep up with the programme! MOL [Lightweight!] But he did have the most epic sun-puddle to stretch out in!
And the catservatory is so warm as it gets all the morning sun.  In fact we all hang out in there most days, oh and the good news is we're finally going to get the floor put down after all this time.  So we'll be able to share some better pics soon and some more catification.  I have 3 wurds fur that - about time too! 

Also, I've had my wurk cut out with snoopervising the P.A. in the garden as there's been a huge growth spurt in the last couple of weeks, and as Spring this year has not been conducive to outdoor activity we're she's a little behind schedule at BB HQ, so we're she's on a big catch-up now.



"Hmmmmm," I said as I wandered around. "Not too bad all things considered, but mew need to weed the front border, back border... actually all the borders need attention!"

Then I added. "The garden bench needs painting, and the main gates, oh and don't furget to get the veg seeds planted stat!"

"Oh is that all Basil?" the P.A. asked as she fought to pull some supurr sticky cleavers that were clinging to her arm and t-shirt. "I'll keep that in mind!"

Well I was only saying.... OOPS!

And in other much more exciting news, look what's happening in August.  The fabulous Pet Show is at Stafford again and it sounds pawesome, read on to see what will be happening... and yes we'll be there too! MOL
