Pawesome Greetings Furbulous Furiends

Welcome to the BBHQ midweek news round-up!

Let's start with the weather report: It was cold, wet, squally and damp until  Monday, then yesterday it got drier and a bit more sunny, so that was quite nice to get a couple of sun puddles.

Remember on Friday, as part of the Fill-ins from 15 and Meowing, asked when the Catmas Tree goes up.

And then we found a picture of this, from 2023!

A festive Christmas tree at BBHQ is adorned with whimsical ornaments, including a standout felt mouse dressed in a red sweater. The mouse holds a small bunch of red berries with green leaves and hangs from the tree by a twine loop. Surrounding it are green pine needles, glowing string lights, and other decorations such as a red circular felt ornament and a white ornament with red dots. The scene radiates holiday cheer and cozy charm. The bottom of the image reads "copyright www.bionicbasil.com"

Yes, we have Catmas Mice on our tree, and no, they have nothing to do with the library mice. 

We did ask, but they refused! MOL MOL


Last week, the epically epic Tabbies of Trout Towne asked:

Iz de PA gonna get de tardiz box stiker 😸😸😸‼️🤎🧡

Well, now there's a thing, especially since she actually installed that Tardis wall sticker and saw how good it was. She just needs to find a space! MOL

Who's On The Roof Again - Fudge

The sky above is mostly cloudy, adding a dramatic backdrop to the rooftop scene. The image is framed with a white border and includes the text "copyright www.bionicbasil.com" at the bottom

Fudge couldn't help himself the other day and had to get on the roof again!

Smooch, Pandora, Melvyn and Fudge


Smooch, Pandora, Melvyn, and Fudge are gathered indoors, viewed through a glass door from outside. Smooch, a white cat with black markings, sits directly in front of the door. Pandora, a fluffy dark-colored cat, stands slightly behind Smooch. Melvyn, a white cat with black patches, lies further back in the room. Fudge, an orange tabby, sits near the left side of the door. All four cats rest on a woven rug over light wooden flooring, gazing outward with curiosity. The image includes the text "copyright www.bionicbasil.com" at the bottom

Four sneaky cats are watching the wood being fetched in for the fire.  

They said, and I quote, "Fluff me, it's cold in here, any chance of getting it totally tropical?"

Yep, it got so tropical that we all moved into the catservatory where it was pawsitively Baltic! MOL

Melvyn's Taken Over The P.A.s New Office Chair


Melvyn, a tabby and white cat, is curled up asleep on a plush grey cushion atop a grey upholstered swivel chair. The chair sits in front of a desk with a pink mouse pad, white computer mouse, and a small potted plant. To the right, a fluffy pink cushion or blanket adds warmth to the space, while a colorful patchwork quilt is visible to the left. The room exudes a cozy, peaceful vibe with soft textures and pastel tones. The bottom of the image reads "copyright www.bionicbasil.com"

The P.A. bought a new office chair, as her old one is supurr old, the gas lift no longer works, and it's literally on its last legs.

So this one arrived a couple of weeks ago, and after she built and put it in place, Melvyn decided that he really liked it, and now the P.A. is using her old chair again, as she can't wake him up when he's catnapping! MOL

Finally this week

Melvyn's Modelling The Top Bandana Pick


Melvyn's getting festive wearing the Candy Canes bandana, so here's BBHQ's furry own supurr meowdel in action.

Melvyn, a white and tabby cat, sits elegantly on a round cushion near a window, modelling a festive red bandana adorned with peppermint candies, holly leaves, and swirling designs. A small yellow tag featuring a black cat illustration hangs from the bandana. The cushion has a white base with dark floral patterns, and the background reveals a cozy indoor room with furniture and a view of a brick wall outside. The image exudes seasonal charm and feline poise. The bottom reads "copyright www.bionicbasil.com"


Fudge was on the catwalk again this week and even tried to beat Melvyn by taking a detour around the kitchen island! MOL

Epic Greetings Furbulous Furiends

Welcome to the BBHQ midweek news round-up!

The BBHQ weather has been damp, with a bitter wind chill during the day, and even colder in the evenings. I have to say, we're not loving it ... where's the sunshine and the warmth?

But we are supurr lucky it wasn't like this last week.

A night-time winter scene at BBHQ (Bionic Basil Headquarters), featuring a snow-covered garden with a pathway leading to a small illuminated summerhouse. The ground, plants, and trees are blanketed in fresh snow, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere. A bright light above the door casts a warm glow, highlighting a large red decorative wheel mounted on the building’s side. Potted plants and neatly trimmed bushes line the path, adding charm to the well-maintained garden. The image includes the text "copyright www.bionicbasil.com" at the bottom

This was this time last year, yep, that white stuff can stay fluffed right off, we ARE NOT ready! MOL

Well, here's a thing!

A lifesize wall sticker designed to resemble the TARDIS from the British TV series "Doctor Who." Painted deep blue with paneling and windows, the top reads "POLICE PUBLIC CALL BOX." Below the windows is a sign with detailed text about public use and emergency assistance. A circular emblem appears on the right panel, and the bottom includes the website "www.bionicbasil.com." The design evokes a nostalgic and imaginative tribute to the iconic time-traveling spacecraft

Who knew that mew could buy a life-size wall/door sticker of the Tardis?

It comes in two pieces, and it's really easy to apply - even on slightly textured walls like this one!!! MOL

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

Fudge's Wearing Melvyn's Bandana


An orange tabby cat named Fudge sits indoors on a textured beige carpet near a glass door. Fudge has a white chest and face and wears a light blue bandana decorated with colorful mushroom designs and a small yellow tag featuring a black cat illustration. To the left of Fudge is a large geode or crystal formation. Outside the glass door, a red blanket or rug is visible on the patio, with green bushes in the background. The image has a cozy, serene atmosphere and includes the watermark "copyright www.bionicbasil.com" at the bottom

Yep, Fudge sneaked one of Melvyn's bandanas on the other day. Melvyn is still grumpy about it. Fudge thought it was hilarious! MOL

Four For One 

Four cats—Fudge, Smooch, Parsley, and Melvyn—relax together on a woven herringbone-patterned rug laid across a wooden floor. Fudge, an orange tabby with a white chest, sits upright. Smooch, a black and white cat, lounges nearby. Parsley, a sleek black cat, lies comfortably, while Melvyn, a tabby and white cat, rests close to the others. The cozy indoor setting includes glimpses of surrounding furniture, capturing a peaceful moment of feline companionship. The bottom of the image reads "copyright www.bionicbasil.com"

Treat time at BBHQ is usually around 10.30pm, so a mini snack session before bed.

Amber and Pandora don't eat treats, don't ask why; they never have, but that means all the more for everpawdy else! MOL

Melvyn's Not Happy

Melvyn, a tabby and white cat, sits calmly on a woven rug in a warmly lit indoor space. His coat features a mix of white fur with black and gray tabby markings. Melvyn gazes to the right, alert and composed. The background includes wooden flooring, a white upholstered piece of furniture with nailhead trim, and other household items. The lighting highlights Melvyn and the rug, while the rest of the room remains softly shadowed. The bottom of the image reads "copyright www.bionicbasil.com"

Well, mew know why he's not happy, Fudge stole one of his bandanas, and a Catmas one he was preparing to wear at the beginning of December - oh fluff, siblings hey?!!! MOL

Pandora Springing into Action March 2022

The background includes a well-maintained lawn, a flowerpot, and some plants in the upper right corner. The image conveys a lively and playful moment. The bottom of the image reads "copyright www.bionicbasil.com"

The BBHQ Midweek News Round-Up ~ Pandora's Looking Really Fluffy, Melvyn The Blur, and Who's Hogging All The Pom Poms? ~ **PLUS** Today's Really Random Photo

A vibrant autumn-themed collage features 7 expressive cats surrounded by pumpkins, falling leaves, stars, and stylized newspaper graphics. One cat shouts “EXTRA! EXTRA!

Epic Greetings Furbulous Furiends

Welcome to the BBHQ midweek news round-up!

The BBHQ weather has been moderately clement during the day, but much cooler in the evenings. I have to say, we're not loving it ... where's the sunshine and the warmth?

Well, floofy readers, we know mew've been waiting all week for this, so here's last week's Zombie Hunt Stats!

It was the same as last year, who would have thought!!! MOL

WHO TAGGED AND BAGGED THE MOST UNDEAD?

A themed scoreboard titled "Mewton-Clawson Annual Zombie Hunt - Final Results 2025" displays rankings of nine feline participants against a dark, eerie background with red claw marks and zombie silhouettes. The table lists each cat’s rank, name, accuracy percentage, and total number of zombies tagged and bagged. Wing Commander Basil leads with 99% accuracy and 55 zombies, followed by Smooch and Dirk the Dangerous. The design evokes a playful, spooky competition atmosphere with a mix of humor and Halloween flair - www.bionicbasil.com

Mew may remember on our Halloween News post that we mentioned this event, so if mew missed that, click here to catch up or have a quick refresh!

Another close run this year, as mew can see, but I did just pip the rest of The B Team to come out victorious.

There was a moment I nearly fluffed up; I missed one as I did the spray and prey tactic with my Uzi, but luckily, Pandora took the shot before it bit me.

There were more undead than last year; we're not sure why, but we did exercise extreme prejudice against their unholy rampage through Mewton-Clawson.

Dirk the Dangerous did well again, coming in the #3 spot. As did newcomer Basher Bigfoot, taking the #8 spot, and this year, our elderly neighbour from Mewton-Clawson Manor, Colonel Fluffton the Fifth, came out of retirement again with his trusty blunderbuss. He also brought an AA12 this year as he joined in the fun and landed the #5 spot, well he was an army sniper back in the day!

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

Pandora's Looking Really Fluffy


Pandora the long-haired tortoiseshell cat sits calmly on a wooden deck, gazing directly at the camera with a composed expression. The cat’s dark, mottled fur contrasts with the warm tones of surrounding terracotta plant pots, some filled with greenery and others empty. A decorative lantern rests nearby, and a brick wall forms the backdrop, creating a cozy, rustic garden atmosphere. The scene evokes a peaceful outdoor moment, with the cat appearing as the serene guardian of its patio domain at www.bionicbasil.com

Pandora was snoopervising the P.A. on Monday while the spring bulbs were planted in all of the terracotta pots.

 Melvyn The Blur

Parsley, Melvyn & Pandora. Indoor scene showing three cats in a hallway. In the foreground, a black cat with a white chest sits calmly on a wooden floor near an open white door, watching two other cats in motion. One of the moving cats—Melvyn—is captured in a blur as he runs at high speed across the hallway, creating a dynamic contrast with the stillness of the seated cat. The hallway features beige walls, light wooden flooring, a white radiator cover with a lattice design, a decorative pedestal with a green potted plant, and a woven rug. The image conveys playful energy and feline mischief in a cozy home setting. www.bionicbasil.com

It was a total riot in the kitchen the other evening ... Melvyn had fetched a bouncy ball out of the toy basket in the sitting room and proceeded to bat it everywhere at high speed! 

Pandora only just managed to get out of the way as it hurtled into the hall! MOL

Parsely sat quietly watching, but still ready to scarper.

Who's Hogging All The Pom Poms?


A fluffy orange tabby cat named Fudge lies stretched out on a textured black-and-white rug, appearing relaxed and content. Surrounding Fudge are several colorful pom-pom toys in shades of green, yellow, and brown, suggesting a playful environment. The background includes a brick surface and a dark object, possibly a fireplace or furniture, adding to the cozy indoor setting. A watermark at the bottom reads "copyright www.bionicbasil.com

Yours Truly Wing Commander Basil from 2015

Wing Commander Basil, a white cat with dark brown and black tabby markings on his back, tail, and head, stands alert on a well-kept grassy lawn. He wears a collar with a tag, suggesting he’s a beloved pet. Behind him is a lush green bush, with a red building and purple flowers adding color to the garden setting. Sunlight casts soft shadows, highlighting Basil’s poised stance and giving the scene a vibrant, outdoor feel. www.bionicbasil.com

 I do remember that day quite vividly, as it was the day Cat Dad returned from a trip to Australia.
