**VALENTINE'S 2026** Brain Training with Cats #97 with your Epic host ~ Professor Basil P.H.D. **PLUS** An Epic Throwback To July 2016

Professor Basil, a tabby and white cat wearing a black bowler hat with a red rose and a red bow tie, sits in front of a large black‑and‑white crossword puzzle background. He’s surrounded by red and pink heart‑shaped balloons and a bouquet of pink roses. A speech bubble beside him reads, “It’s time to give those little grey cells a wurkout!” The scene is styled like a playful, academic-themed poster for a brain‑training activity. At www.bionicbasil.com

Happy Monday guys

Welcome to another furbulous Brain Training sesh on the blog today, and since it is Valentine's Day on Caturday, I've got a Valentinesy theme for mew.

And this week I'm sharing a throwback from July 2016, when the world was an epic place! MOL

The lighting highlights the texture of the cat’s fur, showing soft tabby markings on the head and ears and bright white fur on the face and neck.

I was in a very contemplative mood that day.

Just look at that focus! MOL

Welcome to another BBHQ selfie selection, and it's been a while since all of us were here. This week, we went down to the field to the bench and captured a wintry scene.

Basil and The B Team's February Selfie


Basil and The B Team. Seven cats sit closely together on a wooden bench outdoors in a wintry setting. Behind them are bare trees dusted lightly with snow. The cats vary in colour and pattern — including black, white, orange, and tabby — and a few wear collars with tags. They face the camera in a neat row, resembling a posed family portrait.

It was fluffing cold, a little bit of an early frost, and we decided that the bunker was the place to be!
