Jumping Juniperberries it's Fluffing Scorchio

Smooch escaped from the back door on Monday lunchtime, and the P.A. finally caught him on the bench by the lawn.

He said, "Jumping Juniperberries it's fluffing scorchio. Any chance mew could carry me back indoors?"  

The P.A. promptly snaffled him in her arms and hurried back inside, where he spent the afternoon in front of the fan, having his fur ruffled by a gentle breeze.

Finally this week

The Garden Has Dried Up

Fudge was outside later on Monday evening when it was a litter cooler and was really sad to see that all the plants and flowers look really sad.

The lawn is like a scorched tinder box; even some trees are dropping their leaves to survive.

Here's hoping it cools down as the week progresses and we start to get a few rain showers, although huge rainstorms with copious amounts of water can fluff off, as that kind of rainfall will flood everything. And we don't need any of that drama.


And finally, before we go, we'd just like to say a huge congratulations to all the Certificate of Excellence winners from the Cat Writer's Association!!!

That's us done for today. We'll be back tomorrow with this year's Crafting for Your Shelters post, and  Amber will be back on Caturday with a surprise book review. And if mew missed Monday's post, click here to catch up on The Complete Guide to Growing Catnip.

  2. Congratulations to Jess and Bella and Mango for the win! Nice to see you, Smooch and Fudge. Try to stay cool, sweet friends. We are so worried about you and our other pals in Europe -- that heat wave is so scary. XO

  3. Concats to the winner!!

  4. Congrats to the winner. Thankfully we have lower temperatures today and it is overcast. We do have 99% humidity this morning though. I hope none of the fires are near you. Most of the fires this way are moorland, most likely caused by people being careless with BBQs!

  5. Concats to the winner!
    We are currently in a hot week, where the temps are up over 90F/32C.
    Our yard is dry, and plants are withering. No rain of any appreciable amount predicted, just quick thunderstorms that race over.
    Hope your heat has now disappeared!

    So you went outside and were happy to get back inside. All's well that ends well.
