**COLOURING WITH CATS #106** ~ Getting Your OM’s on with Mandalas on Mondays ~ Supurr Chilled & OMMING On With Melvyn

Supurr Monday greetings beautiful furiends

Melvyn is really into getting his Zen Harmonies happening and loves getting his OM's on, so do join him this morning as it's his turn to take early morning purractice!

First, find a nice quiet spot and just be still for a few moments and let all the busy thoughts just fade away.

And then press play on Smooch's video below.

Melvyn has come a long since he first arrived at BBHQ and asked, "Dudes, what the fluff is an OM?"  

We still laugh about it today! MOL MOL

Anyhoo, we hope mew've all had a totally epic weekend, and that mew're ready for the week ahead, so let's jump right in and start as always with our little breathing exercise, which we're sure mew all have down paw by now...  but if mew've forgotten, stop what mew're doing for a moment and take deep fulfilling breaths; counting to five on the inhale and five on the exhale:

Breathe in

Breathe out

Breathe in

Breathe out

Breathe in

Breathe out

Smooch is here again to offur mew assistance in getting your OM's on and Zen Harmonies happening, so just press play, close your eyes and follow his instructions.



Don't mew feel better already?  I know we do!

All the mandalas featured are created & designed by us, aka The B Team.

Right-click to save and/or print the mandala.

And here's our finished version... this week we felt a more vibrant palette was needed, so we used a zingy tomato red, deep candy pink with shades of blue and lilac, and we think it turned out purretty cool! 

Coloured on the iPad and then transformed in Prisma, this time we chose the effect - Wild Horse.

Don't furget mew can download** our free Colouring with Cats here:- Books One, Two, Three, and Four.

Colouring with Cats Book One

Colouring With Cats Book Two ~ Easy Mandala's

So on that note, we'll say bye for now and hope mew have a truly epic Monday, and we'll be back on Wednesday with The Midweek News.

Until then

Keep Calm and Colour OM!

Smooch's Supurr Lounging Selfie on The Sunday Selfies Blog Hop and Caturday Art Blog Hop

Furbulous Sunday greetings furiends

Welcome to another BBHQ selfie selection, and today Smooch is showing how lounge to purrfection. He was enjoying a bit of time under the gazebo, and took epic pride in getting a supurr loungy as possible!

Smooch's Supurr Lounging Selfie 

We think he nailed clawed it! MOL

Just look at the complete catsisfaction radiating from him.

We're also joining in Athena's Fabulous Art Hop so do stop by and show off your pawesome arty-farty skills.

The effect was created with Befunky - AI Enhancer, Poly Art 2 + colour changes to hue and saturation.

We also turned this fab arty-farty picture into a puzzle, so do stop by the puzzle page and take the Puzzle Challenge, see if mew can beat our time of 12 mins 29 secs. 

Anyhoo it's time for us to go and lounge around ourselves! MOL

Smooch is snoopervising in the kitchen for a change, in fact we think he's getting more like a celebrity chef everyday! 

We do hope mew have an epic day, and look forward to your company in the morning when we're back with more supurr fun Colouring with Cats.

In the meantime...

**ST PATRICK'S DAY 2025** Brain Training with Cats #93 with your Epic host ~ Professor Basil P.H.D. **PLUS** An Epic Throwback To May 2010

Happy Monday guys

HAPPY ST PATRICK'S DAY!

Welcome to another furbulous Brain Training sesh on the blog today, and as it's St Patrick's Day, mew know where I'm going with this! MOL

And this week I'm sharing a throwback from May 2010, and I chose a really green photo! MOL

Mew know that cat perch I'm on was absolutely epic, it was furry sad day when it finally decided to take itself to the bonfire and go to cat perch heaven!

It's time to get those little grey cells working.

Here's the answer key to last time's sudoku #59

Are mew ready for this week's puzzle?

Just click right-click to save and/or print the puzzle. 

The answer key will be on the next B.T.W.C. post, which I'm thinking will probably be for Easter.

Here's this week's wordsearch.

Just click right-click to save and/or print the wordsearch.

And finally here's this week's jigsaw puzzle.

It took me 8 mins 56 secs...  How did mew do?

I hope mew enjoy today's puzzles and The B Team will be back on Wednesday with the Midweek News Round-up, so join us for all the gossip! Until then...

Keep calm, and puzzle on

and be...

Melvyn's Epically Cute Selfie on The Sunday Selfies Blog Hop & Caturday Art Hop

Furbulous Sunday greetings furiends

Welcome to another BBHQ selfie selection, and today young Melvyn is here doing what he does best, being epically cute!

Melvyn's Epically Cute Selfie 

We love this selfie of Melvyn, he is uttterly adorable!

We're also joining in Athena's Fabulous Art Hop so do stop by and show off your pawesome arty-farty skills.

OH MY COD!!!

We love this effect! 

The effect was created with Befunky - AI Enhancer, Pastel GFX + colour changes to saturation and a vignette around the edge, absolutely lovely! MOL

We also turned this fab arty-farty picture into a puzzle, so do stop by the puzzle page and take the Puzzle Challenge, see if mew can beat our time of 12 mins 13 secs. 

Anyhoo, it's time for us to go and have a quick pawtrol around the garden, we won't be outside for long as it's turned rather fluffing chilly again, which we're not loving on any level, especially after last weekend's epic warms.

So we're just going to get snuggled in the sitting room where the warms are totally tropical. Smooch is snoopervising lunch, he's camped out right opposite the oven watching the roast chicken cook to purrfection and this afternoon, as all garden activities are suspended until further notice and double digits are on the thermometer, we're going to watch a movie. And we may watch the second Avatar, as we've never seen it and Cat Dad borrowed the DVD off a furiend, so that's us taken care of, how's your day looking?

We do hope mew have an epic Sunday and join us again bright and breezy in the morning when we're back with a supurr special St Patrick's Day Brain Training with Cats, so mew can get your little grey cells all excited and have a supurr workout.
