Furbulous Greetings Supurr Furiends

Welcome to the BBHQ midweek news round-up!

Happy Wednesday, floofers, we hope mew've had a great week, ours has been fair to middling, but let's start with the weather report!

It's remained nice and cool for the most part, in the early 20s Celsius, and there's been a couple of showers, although not really enough to do any good. But at least it's not baking like it was earlier in the month, and we're supurr thankful for that.

The P.A. discovered that some rather hungry caterpillars have found her vegetable garden and are taking a serious liking to the purple broccoli and cabbage... Needless to say, Smooch offered his services and promptly disappeared into the bunker to get the bazooka. Yep, this is really a thing... follow the link, scroll to Chapter Two - the first line. (See it's a thing! MOL)

As the garden is a crispy as a snowflake in Hades, we're sharing a couple of throwback garden pics, when things were a little more colourful instead of brown.

This was the gorgeous Raspberry Ripple Rose from last August. We actually bought two other colourways, but so far this year, nothing.

The Raspberry Ripple Rose at BBHQ in full bloom—featuring vivid pink petals streaked with creamy white, creating a captivating marbled pattern. Set against lush green foliage, this unique rose variety adds an elegant splash of colour to the garden, ideal for www.bionicbasil.com posts on rare roses, cottage garden inspiration, and summer flower photography.

And here's a random selection from July 2023.

Vibrant flower collage from BBHQ featuring pink dahlias, coneflowers, blue daisies, cheerful yellow blooms, and classic white daisies. A striking butterfly with red and black wings takes centre stage, perched gracefully among the blossoms. This nature-rich image highlights summer pollinator activity and diverse cottage garden plants—perfect for www.bionicbasil.com posts on wildlife-friendly gardening, floral photography, and outdoor sanctuary inspiration

Aren't they pretty! Shame they've all retreated into the soil to save themselves!

Anyhoo, let's look at this week's top headlines.

Finally this week

Melvyn's Modelling The Top Bandana Pick


This week, Melvyn is modelling the last bandana of July. 

Well, he's actually modelling both from last week, as this is his last modelling assignment for the summer, as Amber has another job for him. (See Mews Flash below).

He really enjoyed modelling the Cactus Crazee bandana.

Melvyn, a white and tabby cat with expressive green eyes, lies on a patterned rug indoors wearing the Cactus Crazee Bandana—a vibrant accessory featuring colourful cactus illustrations. His relaxed pose and the cheerful design add a playful, stylish touch. The wooden floor background and www.bionicbasil.com branding complete this charming feline fashion moment

And here's The Pink Flutterby's bandana!

Melvyn, a white and tabby cat with soft green eyes, models The Pink Flutterby's bandana while reclining adorably on a woven rug indoors. The bandana features whimsical pink and green butterfly prints, adding a splash of springtime charm to his relaxed pose. A wooden floor and metallic bowl sit in the background, with www.bionicbasil.com subtly branding this feline fashion spotlight

Doesn't he look epic?

He'll be back in the Autumn with some more epic bandana selections just for mew!

Melvyn's got his furry own post coming on Friday called: 

Melvyn’s Mewsings ~ Life in The BBHQ Library ~ One Shelf at a Time!

And he'll be sharing his exploits in the bunker library archive and continuing Amber's riveting Dear Prudence Saga while she's on her jolly's.

He's supurr excited! (Or not! MOL)

Here's a brief opener:

Amber said it would be quiet. 

She said, ‘Just keep things tidy.’ 

I haven’t seen the floor in three days.

Oh yes, mew know where this is going, don't mew?

  2. I hope you get more rain.

    Whether it's the couch situation or the library, I think Amber is going to let what she thinks be known in no uncertain terms and that right soon.

    The summerhouse looks like a great place to hang out. As for Parsley, that is one relaxed cat.

    Melvyn, you did a great job modeling.
