OMC it seems like furreffur ago since I was here, and it was too, the 2nd of February to be exact!
Anyhoo, I'm here today because Pandora's Boggle was Seriously Bugged, want to know more? Of course mew do! MOL A couple of weeks ago, Pandora was modelling a lovely piece of collar couture which the P.A. had made especially fur her - the P.A. has gone a bit mad lately [since her birthday to be exact] and has started making all kinds of things, but anyhoo I digress - So Pandora was in the middle of her modelling shoot when Amber who doesn't give a flying fluff about anything or anyone at all because she's the eldest and that's her purrogative in life as a crotchety old cougar, and she basically ruined it fur poor Pandora! And to add insult to an already spoiled mood, Amber then said at the bottom of her post and I quote directly from said post: "Pandora was really peeved at this point and is no doubt writing to Parsley with a seriously serious Pet Peeve! MOL! OOPS! MOL!"
Pandora said and I quote, "I now understand the struggle Summer sometimes has when she's modelling!" #TheStruggleIsReal #ItsToughBeingSoFabulous So if any of mew gorgeous lady kitties have any tips on how Pandora can avoid future upsets while on modelling assignments from crotchety old cougars, that would be epic, as being a man-cat I know nothing about female modelling dilemmas! MOL [And I don't need to get between these feisty felines at home! MOL] * * *
And quickly before I pootle off, I am joining in the Caturday Art Blog Hop with
8 Things About WHAT though?! we hear mew ask. Well fabulous furiends it could be 8 things about anything, but today it's all about...
8 Things About Melvyn
1. Melvyn arrived at BBHQ on the 12th of January, although he didn't appear on the blog until our Valentines edition of Crafting with Cats, he was approximately one and a half years old when he arrived.
He was not used to having toys or catnip before he arrived at BBHQ, but he's been making up fur all of that since his arrival.
2. He really loves his furry orange carrot.
This is one of his favourite toys, the P.A. got it from the dudes at Katzenworld when she saw them at the Birmingham Pet Show last year - dudes if mew're reading this, we need another furry orange carrot stat! MOL
3. Melvyn is a little bit of a weirdo, want to know why? Of course mew do, just watch the video below...
See what we mean, what cat carries his collar? he doesn't even like to wear one, just play with it and he likes to take all of our collars too, and even the spare ones out of the tin! Both Smooch and Fudge have lost collars to The Melvynator, one yellow and one green! OOPS MOL!
The Melvynator knows exactly where our collars are kept in the cupboard in the laundry when we're not wearing them, and the minute he hears a bell, he's there trying to collar-snatch our clothes!
4. He has the most golden eyes we've effur seen. Seriously they're like glowing citrines, just look...
5. Melvyn is like the Harry Potter of Cats, instead of a lightning bolt scar on his forehead, he has a lightning bolt of white fur down his back, so this is definitive proof that Melvyn also survived Voldemort ~ Fluffing Fluff, that's seriously hardcore dude!
HE IS THE CAT WHO LIVED! MOL
6. Melvyn has a lovely temperament and is such a happy little camper, much like me his, great, great, great, great uncle Basil, take a look at this... mew can feel the happies radiating from him!
7. Melvyn was originally called Malcolm, although we felt this didn't suit him at all so he promptly got a new name. And yes, he's also called The Melvynator, like The Terminator only better! MOL
and finally...
8. This was Melvyn's furry furst day at BBHQ... typical Fudge...
MOL, it only got better from there on in!
Melvyn has settled in beautifully and has made a wunderful addition to The B Team. He'll be starting at our Kitty Kommando Academy soon, as he's still not been into the bunker and guess who's in charge of his training?
And that sadly brings us to the end of 8 Things About young Melvyn, we do hope mew enjoyed getting to learn a little more about my nephew. But if mew have a specific question about him, ask us in the comments and we'll reply.
If mew missed our previous '8 Things About' posts, here are the links:
Thanks effur so much fur stopping by today, and Parsley will be up next with another Pet Peeves post on Caturday, as Amber is hosting The Mewton-Clawson Historical Society ~ M.C.H.S. again tomorrow in the library. And if mew need a puzzle or two to do, stop by my puzzle page later as there are 3 new ones to do.

Welcome to the Pet Parade and our weekly news round up!
If mew were here on Monday mew may remember we mentioned that another website was stealing our content again along with a lot of our fab blogging pals. So we've implemented a NO RIGHT CLICK policy here now - Thank mew furry much to The Tabbies of Trout Towne fur sharing this with us - mew guys are epic!
We were going to wait until the winter programming schedule had finished before we added it but aftur this last lot of scumbags stole a pile of posts, we really didn't have a lot of choice.
And while this saves our content from being plagiarized it makes it harder fur us to share our puzzle and mandalas with mew, hence the reason fur wanting to wait. But anyhoo, needs must, so now instead of right clicking to save and then print, we've added Mondays Mandalato ourGoogle Drive and mew can download/print directly from there, and the puzzles will be the same on the next Brain Training with Cats, though if mew do have any issues with this new download system, purrlease let us know and we'll try to solve it.
All previous mandalas on Colouring with Cats and wurd-search/crosswurds/sudoku puzzles on Brain Training posts are obviously now unavailable, so it goes and mew can thank the fluffing scumbag fluffers, as Fudge so succinctly put it!
Now moving on to other news, fur those of mew who follow us on InstaCat mew may have seen that we lost C.J. Catkins Memorial Tree in Storm Gareth a couple of weeks ago. This made us so sad, it was Catkins 19th Anniversary on Jan 27th this year since he departed fur the RB, and in all honesty without Catkin adopting the P.A. way back in 1997 there would have never been a B Team or any of this, so he started this entire legacy over 20 years and to lose his tree, which was a catkin tree was so upsetting.
Dad has now cut the tree down as it snapped at the root with no chance of resurrection, as we've done in previous years. So we're planning a new memorial garden, which we'll share on future Gardening with Cats posts when we start our summer programming schedule.
If mew missed anything offur the last week, here's the latest posts fur your purrusal:
I won't be here tomorrow with my regular Brain Training with Cats as instead we've been teasing mew fur a few weeks now about Melvyns 8 Things Aboutpost so that will be live in the morning so do stop by to join us if mew get chance, and mew can find out all about our youngest B Team memfur!
