Pawesome Wednesday Greetings Furriends

Welcome to the Pet Parade and our weekly news round up!

Parsley enjoyed the last few days of summer which abruptly ended late on Sunday with a very rainy weather front appearing, and deciding to dump oodles of the wet stuff on Mewton-Clawson.

In between the rain falling it still felt quite warm during those dryer spells, and luckily unless it's quite windy the rain doesn't really make it under the gazebo, so Parsley was able to enjoy quite a bit of time relaxing.



Get Your Five A Day

A couple of weeks ago the P.A. and dad took a little trip to our local Ikea and while they were ambling around the mega store they ended up traversing a toy department and found this!

Ikea Vegetable Selection  @BionicBasil® The Pet Parade 319

It's absolutely fantastic, an entire vegetable basket with a leek, tomatoes, garlic clove, mushrooms, carrots, cucumber and lettuce, 14 pcs in total.  Who says us cats don't get their five'a'day! MOL 

But seriously, if mew're looking fur some really fun toys, these are great value at £7 just add a sprinkling of nip and mew're away.

Mew might remember the Afternoon Tea with Cats post a few weeks ago?  Those cupcakes in the furst pic were also from an earlier excursion to Ikea, and we have a fruit basket and more cake to share with mew next week.



A Little Catification

And finally before we pop off, Smooch and Pandora were testing out the new scratch barrels that arrived at BBHQ.

They are fur the sitting room as the smaller scratch posts that lived by the patio doors were passed their use by date, so the P.A. treated us to some new ones. 

Not only are they pawesome, they were a total bargain too from Pet Planet:  black one and cream one

What a great buy, so if mew're in the U.K. and are looking fur some smaller perches, these are fantastic.

On Guard, Valerian Toys & Cats In Boxes on the Pet Parade Blog Hop No: 234 ~ Hosted by Rascal & Rocco Co-Hosted by Basil & Barking from the Bayou

Pawesome Friday Greetings Furriends

Welcome to the Valentines Week Report on the Pet Parade. We've had a really loved up week here on the blog, with heart selfies, heart mandalas, heart books, heart puzzles, like there's so much love happening right now we're about to get out the dinghies and start paddling! MOL

But seriously enough about love, let's move on and talk about toys... woo hooo we love toys [oops more love happening] here at the BionicBasil HQ and the other week our supurr, great pals at the pawesome blog Katzenworld asked if we'd like to try a recently released selection of valerian toys from 4Cats in Germany.  

Like would we effur - if there's catnip, catmint or valerian involved, WE ARE THERE DUDES!!!  But seriously non of us here has a catnip, catmint or valerian addiction, we just really, really like those plants, GROWING, DRIED or SPRAY - it all wurks fur us! MOL

So the other day the P.A. unboxed effurything to see what we got and OMC just look at all, isn't marvellous, supurr, smashing, great?  Anyhoo its not all fur us, that would be rude and mew know we love to share, so we'll be doing a propurr sponsored post featuring all these wunderpurr goodies next week and having another give-away, yep mew heard me right, another epic give-away, we bet mew're so excited about that!

Anyhoo, aftur the big reveal which was most epic and exciting, I took it upon myself to do the right thing and guard all those toys most seriously and stalwartly as mew can see...
Fudge tried to muscle in on the action but I said, "No way dude, mew stay offur there on your crinkle heart mat!"


"More like a complete heathen!" I muttered, then added. "Dude mew can guard the box on the early-burd shift between the hours of 3am to 5am, it will be in the safe so your job is to sit by the the safe and not move until somepurrdy else comes on the next shift!"

"OHHHHHHHH I can do that!" Fudge beamed excitedly. "Can I keep one of the toys to keep me company?"

  "NO!" I replied.

"Awww but Basil they smell so good, and it would really help me stay awake!" Fudge said.

"Nope, nopurrdy has access to the toys until tomorrow in the pm!" I stated firmly. 

He nodded agreeably and then asked...




I gave them my bestest eye-roll and said. "Dudes, mew're both on the early-burd shift now!"

"Awwwwwwwwwww!!!!" Smooch protested. "I've got big plans fur tonight!"

"Not anymore mew don't!" I replied. "And by plans mew mean sleeping in that box!"

To be continued next week....

Welcome to the Valentines Pet Parade and our weekly news round up!

Well what a week its been, the P.A.'s birthday, an invasion of an alien horde, Amber's cash flow purroblem... we've hardly drawn a breath! MOL

Smooch is well happy with it, but now he's chomping at the bit because he wants all the catification to begin!
