Friday The 13th, Will It Effur Rain Again & Cat Fest London on the Pet Parade Blog Hop No: 257 ~ Hosted by Rascal & Rocco Co-Hosted by Basil & Barking from the Bayou



Pawesome Friday Greetings Furriends

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

Did mew know it's Friday the 13th today? Now we're vaguely supurrstitious here, though most of it falls by the wayside but there are some things we take heed of such as:

Not walking under ladders, well that's more fur purrsonal safety rather than supurrstition! MOL 

If the P.A. knocks the salt pot offur, we make her throw a pinch [sack] of salt offur her shoulder.

We do not allow the P.A. to do any washing whatsoeffur on New Years Day, as supposedly mew wash away all your future luck fur the coming year.

And finally as it is Friday the 13th we have banned her from doing anything other than being wrapped up in a bubble-suit and staying confined to one room in the house and no, she's not allowed to do anything - well mew know how she is! MOL MOL 
Mew may remember on Mondays post that we gave mew a little weather report/update [see Gardening with Cats link below] well it's been weeks and weeks since we had any rain, our water butts are nearly empty now so it looks like drastic action is needed.  We, aka all The B Team had a little meeting and decided that we needed to do a rain-dance, so this evening guess what?  Yep we're getting geared up, the drums are coming out and we will be honouring the Rain Gods, The Ancestors and The Great Goddess Bast in style; though funnily enough, we had to do the same thing in 2016 at the end of July, so wish us luck in getting some precipitation to fall MOL

This is what we looked like back then, with Angels Humphrey, Snowie and Posie... and yes we did get some rain aftur!




In other news, the P.A. and Dad were going to London tomorrow fur the furry furst Cat Fest, but it's too hot, the Wimbledon tennis finals are on and President Trump is in town so an extra gazillion police officers are about to quell any protests that make occur while he's here.

So many apologies that we won't be able to give mew a full report from Cat Fest, though our supurr buddies at www.katzenworld.com will hopefully be there, so we'll share the link to their Cat Fest experience when it goes live.

I was quite annoyed they decided not to go, but it'll be so horribly busy and sweaty down in the Big Smoke that really I can't blame them, much nicer to amble around the garden in Mewton-Clawson! MOL

Parsley will be here tomorrow with another Pet Peeves post and then we'll be back with our usual selfie selection on Sunday, so hope mew can join us then, in the meantime we wish mew all an epic weekend

Bestest purrs and big hugs

It's HOT HOT HOT, The Catnip Crop Is Drying & Where Cats Roam on the Pet Parade Blog Hop No: 255 ~ Hosted by Rascal & Rocco Co-Hosted by Basil & Barking from the Bayou



Pawesome Friday Greetings Furriends

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

It is absolutely SCORCHIO here, it's fantastic although we could do with some regular rainfall between the hours of 12am to 5am nightly as some of our trees are shedding leaves its that dry.

So what's been happening in Mewton-Clawson we hear mew ask... well the runner beans have been decimated by slugs & snails and the peas are not that great either, don't ask about the tomatoes or lettuce and definitely not the purple broccoli. The P.A. has bought some extra slug traps which mew fill with beer, yep those slugs & snails are going to get mightily drunk, though sadly it's too late fur this years crop, but at least we'll be ready fur next year and the P.A. is going to make a new veg garden down the side of the house where it gets all the afternoon sun, so we'll be sharing that with mew when she gets started on it.

And this is what we've been doing all week in rotation! MOL

In other news the furst cut of catnip is drying under the carport, we've got four big bunches hanging and we're nearly ready fur a second cut once the flowers are out.

If mew're getting low on your catnip stash mew know where to come.

So it seems the veg garden is a total bust this year but the catnip crop is definitely bumper! MOL



Also before we pop off, we got an email the other day from the fab peeps at GoCompare asking if we would share this fun graphic from their blog post called: Where Cats Roam, and taking a look at it how could we say no! MOL

Mew can see the entire post at their blog [link below], it's pawesome!
