A colourful collage featuring seven cats lined up in front of stylised newspaper backdrops with the word “NEWS” repeated behind them. At the top left, a cat appears to shout beside a speech bubble that says “EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT!”. Bright pink and blue flowers sit below the cats, with blue‑and‑white stripes and pink starbursts in the background. The central text reads “Midweek News Round Up with The B Team,” with “©BionicBasil®” at the bottom.
Roses are booming, the weather’s cooled, the veggie garden’s planted, and the cats are living their best outdoor lives. Melvyn rocked the Psychedelic Feline bandana ~ vote for next week’s pick! MOL

Furbulous Greetings Supurr Furiends

Welcome to the BBHQ midweek news round-up!

Happy Wednesday, supurr furiends, and thanks so much for dropping by. Relax, get comfortable, and let’s dive into what’s been happening at BBHQ this week.

Here's the weather report: Well, after last week's supurr scorchio heatwave, it cooled down on Caturday, then even more on Sunday, the heavens opened Monday, and it rained all night. 

And yesterday it was a mix of clouds and sun all day with a high of 19 Celsius, which is much more tolerable than last week.

Those high temperatures in the U.K. are suffocating, as it's so humid and unpleasant. We even got the portable air-con unit out, as the bricks warm up and then the house gets hotter and hotter until it heaves with heat due to the extra-thick walls.

Anyhoo, we like this week's weather better, and on Sunday we helped snoopervise in the veggie garden as the P.A. and Cat Dad planted: runner beans, peas, broad beans, lettuce, courgettes, tomatoes, mini cucumbers, all types of peppers, more tomatoes, more lettuce, shallots, and beetroot. 

Plus nasturtiums as sacrificial plants, oh, and there was some basil, not me MOL, and coriander planted too, as the older herbs had wilted too much in the heat.

Cat Dad is planning to set up an irrigation system once the planting is finished. There are a lot more empty pots, and the P.A. will hopefully get some more compost and a few more plants next weekend, and we're done there.

Here's this week's flower offering, this time we're sharing the rose in the courtyard and the one at the back of the summerhouse.

A climbing rose bush covered in deep red blossoms grows against a brick wall beside a window. Glossy green leaves surround the clusters of roses, which cascade toward a garden bed filled with purple‑blue groundcover plants. Bright sunlight highlights the vivid colours in this BBHQ garden scene.

The blooms are incredible!

A lush flowering shrub covered in large clusters of creamy‑white blossoms, each made up of many small, tightly packed petals. The green foliage surrounds the blooms, with hints of pink flowers and darker leaves from nearby plants in the background, creating a vibrant garden scene at BBHQ.

We'll share more flowers next time, and if mew're wondering where this week's jigsaw puzzle is, there isn't one as last time's absolutely crippled them emotionally!!! MOL MOL 

There are still two more to go, so don't worry, we'll share those after the P.A. gets over her boggle!

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

First up in the news this week

Fudge's on Garden Pawtrol


An orange cat with a fluffy tail sits on a stone garden path, facing away while surveying a lush, sunlit garden. Small blue flowers bloom in the foreground, and two garden lights sit among the greenery as Fudge keeps watch on garden pawtrol.

Fudge enjoyed a lovely garden pawtrol the other day, well, he does every day, but the P.A. managed to snap him in action, well, sitting there assessing everything! MOL

Smooch's Chillaxing Under The Gazebo


A white cat with black markings and a red collar relaxes on a beige cushioned sofa under a gazebo. Two large beige pillows sit behind him, and soft natural light filters through greenery in the background as tripawed Smooch chillaxes comfortably.

Smooch got himself under the gazebo for a nice chillaxing session; he knows where to get! MOL

 Parsley's Deep in Flower Garden


A black cat rests on a mossy surface deep within a lush flower garden, surrounded by green foliage and small blooms. Wearing a collar with a tag, Parsley blends into the shadows as vibrant leaves and plants frame him in the tranquil outdoor setting.

And Parsley decided to go off the beaten track, deep into the flower garden and get himself cooled down on one of the large moss-covered rocks for the afternoon. Yep, what a place to be!

Finally this week

Melvyn's Modelling The Top Bandana Pick


The Psychedelic Feline bandana is this week's top pick. Last week we thought the P.A. might have finished the new collection, but sadly she didn't, so this month we're returning to some summer favourites!

Stylish white and tabby cat, Melvyn, models a vibrant yellow bandana featuring colourful cat illustrations and sun motifs, sitting confidently on a sleek black granite kitchen countertop. The modern kitchen backdrop includes white cabinets and a stainless steel range hood, adding an elegant contrast to Melvyn's playful pet fashion look. Perfect inspiration for cat lovers, pet accessories, and feline fashion trends. Seen on www.bionicbasil.com

Doesn't he look epic?

And as he modelled this bandana way back in March 2023, we have videos to share again!

Check out Melvyn's videos on your favourite social media channel below, and he chose classic 80s tracks to strut to:

TikTok - Katrina and the Waves

Instagram - Bronski Beat

YouTube - Yazoo
