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!

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!

**COLOURING WITH CATS #104** ~ Getting Your OM’s on with Mandalas on Mondays ~ The Cactus Scratcher Make-Over ~ What Do Mew Think To It Now?

Supurr Monday greetings beautiful furiends

A long time ago we shared Melvyn attacking the Cactus scratch post, well if mew look at the picture in the post mew'll notice that the bottom is covered in a beige/brown shagpile fabric,  and we decided that we really didn't like it that much and needed to do something about it stat.  

So we headed into the craft room and found some pom poms thinking that it might look quite funky and it did, but sadly we didn't have enough and so we went for option two, a nice verdant grass effect with some faux fur we had in stock and then we decided to change how the cacti were situated for a bit of variety too! MOL

What do mew think, is it improved or did mew like the beige shagpile more?

Mandalas on Monday ©BionicBasil® Colouring With Cats #104 Cactus Update

We would have really liked to do the pom poms but mew see those in pic 1, that's £33.00 worth and we'd probably need as many again to do it propurrly and we don't think £66.00 of poms poms is justifiable, that amount buys a lot of cat food and treats, and we know what we'd sooner have and it's not pom poms! MOL 


Anyhoo, we do hope mew've all had a totally pawesome 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 offer mew assistance in getting your OM's on and Zen Harmonies happening, so just press play, close your eyes and follow his instructions.

And here's our finished version... this week we decided to use a warm, sunny palette mixed with cool blues and sparkling aqua tones.

We really like this colour combo, what do mew think?

**COLOURING WITH CATS** #89 ~ Getting Your OMs on with Mandalas on Mondays ~ It's All Happening In Mewton-Clawson

Supurr Monday greetings beautiful furriends

Hiya guys, how was your weekend, anything good happen?  Ours was purretty laid-back, it was a beautiful day on Caturday, but a rather dull day on Sunday; Smooch and Pandora spent some time outside, and if mew want to see Pandora's supurr slow-mo video, pop to insta and check it out.  

Melvyn and Fudge are under house-arrest at the moment because Fudge decided to go marauding into next doors garden, upsetting a few burds and ruffling some feathers, and young Melvyn came home wet through and naked missing his collar, and we still haven't got to the bottom of that mystery, so they aren't going out anytime soon!

So Fudge spent Sunday like this...

And young Melvyn sulked in the kitchen...

Breathe in
Breathe out

Breathe in
Breathe out
