Furbulous Greetings Supurr Furiends
Welcome to the BBHQ midweek news round-up!
Happy Wednesday, pawesome furiends, and thank mew so much for dropping by. Relax, get comfortable, and let’s dive into what’s been happening at BBHQ over the last few days.The weather, well, not much of a report, more of a frigid washout with a few sunny spells here and there. The temps have been very cool, the rain very wet and rather offensive with big, chubby drops, and the sun, when it appeared, warm but not warm enough.
However, according to Cat Dad's weather app, this weekend it will get back towards normal June temperatures, with a possible high of 26 Celsius on Caturday, so we are really looking forward to that! MOL
And then the UK weather peeps are predicting another supurr scorchio heatwave, allegedly, with a huge red alert starting around June 19th/20th with highs of 34C in certain places - so prepare for instantaneous combustion like a vampire in sunlight from that date - we'll believe it when we see it.
Mew know what makes us MOL so much is when mew see weather maps now that are essentially inferno hell maps: deep bloody crimsons, angry dangerous reds, vile unpredictable oranges, and all the colours completely unnecessary in weather descriptions.
We remember the good old days, with a nice little pale green map of the UK, and cute stickers of a yellow sun, a white cloud, a cloud with rain, a cloud with rain and lightning, a little gusty depiction, a sun and cloud, etc...
What we want to know is why all the red tones? Odd! MOL
Here's this week's flower offering, two fantastic foxgloves.
The one above is so delicate, like a pastel presence shimmering among the green foliage.
And this one below, a gorgeous magenta, a colour that pops like a little firecracker from under the shade of the trees.
We did have some meautiful peach-toned ones, but at the moment they are not showing, but we'll see if the weather warms a little and they might come out to play! MOL
Anyhoo, let's look at this week's top headlines.
First up in the news this week
Fudge's Relaxing in The Garden
In a brief dry spell, with a bit of sunshine, Fudge got on one of his favourite spots, the big, granite millwheel.
When it's really warm, these stones heat up like a nice hot water bottle, and everypawdy loves a turn! MOL
Next up in the news
Smooch's in The Summerhouse
Smooch said it was too windy under the gazebo, and insisted on the summerhouse being opened so he could snooze on the huge cat tree in there.
He was just checking if anypawdy had been on the blanket lately! MOL
In Other News
Parsley's Under the Log Basket
In another brief sunny dry spell, Parsley decided he needed to get under the log basket. Personally, I think he was looking for spiders! MOL
Finally this week
Melvyn's Modelling The Top Bandana Pick
Last week, mew voted for the supurr cute Caticorn bandana; Melvyn loves this one. His favourite toy is a unicorn, so he was bursting with joy! MOL
Look at him, this is his faraway gaze, he was dreaming of unicorns! MOL MOL
Check out Melvyn's videos on your favourite social media channel below:
Which one should he model next?
Here's the June Bandana collection, and we chose a really fun selection for mew this time.
And we've decided to give mew five to choose from again, even though we only needed four, OH MY COD, the utter excitement of it all! MOL
The June Collection:
1. Caticorn
2. Cakes for Cats
3. Psychedelic Feline
4. Bugs and Bugs
5. Mice Cream
Tell us your top pick for next week in the comments, mew've got four left to choose from!
That's us done for today. Amber will be back on Friday with another pawesome book just for mew, plus updates on the Library's mood, and if mew missed any other posts, here are the links:

Oh noes, the Trout Towne weather map sounds like it’s been hijacked by the Hotter‑Than‑Hades Committee, if the red dood wants online time, he can take our next rainstorm instead 🥵🔥 MOL!
We hope the moovee place gets its act together, but tell the gurl we’d love her to check out Melvyn’s runway strut on TikTok. He’s been practising his ‘supurr model whisker‑flick’ all week.
And that’s a vote for Mice Cream, excellent choice to cool everypawdy down a bit 😸💚🐾‼️

ReplyDeleteHope you get the nicer weather as predicted. We are in a heat wave here, (91F and feels like 100+), and soon bad storms will annoy us. Then maybe we'll have some nicer weather, too.
