Welcome to The BBHQ Midweek News Round-Up ~ Crystal Healing with Smooch, Parsley's Snoopervising in The Garden and Melvyn's Latest Shopping Haul - What Should He Wear First? **PLUS** Unboxing The Halloween Feline & Fiction Box

Supurr Wednesday Greetings Pawesome Furiends

Welcome to November and our weekly news round-up!

We can't believe that November has just popped up; where is the time going? It'll be Catmas in two shakes of a lamb's tail! MOL

And speaking of Catmas we've got to start designing this years festive card, do mew have any idea's for us?

First up in the news

Crystal Healing with Smooch

Smooch really enjoys being around the crystals. He also enjoys a bit of crystal healing too, although finding the right crystals to put on him can take a bit of time, though we did manage to get the purrfect selection the other evening and here are the ones we used: carnelian, apatite, orange calcite, and selenite tumble stones. We'll be sharing more info on these crystals in our upcoming Colouring with Cats posts.

Check out his supurr cute video on TikTok.

Doesn't he look so smoochy? MOL

Smooch also managed to find a tiny sun puddle the other day!

It was just a slither, but he loved it.

Parsley's Snoopervising in The Garden

Parsley was the chief snoopervisor in the BBHQ garden on Tuesday.

We were planting some tulip bulbs, now do be careful as the actual bulbs are toxic to cats. We planted ours in some plant pots which The B Team aren't bothered with.

Also, don't let your kitties near daffodil bulbs either, just to err on the side of caution.

The B Team don't dig any bulbs up at BBHQ; in the 23 years we've lived here no one has ever had a bad experience with a tulip, daffodil or their corresponding bulbs. So we're pretty confident that we can have these flowers in our garden without issue but always do your own research.

Check out the selection that we planted in Parsley's TikTok video.

For those of mew who live in the UK, most of these bulbs were from B and M, on the 3 for £5 offer. They have some good bulbs at a reasonable price.

Finally this week

Melvyn's Latest Shopping Haul

1. Mystical Unicorns

2. Glow Bugs

3. Gingerbread Skelebobs

 Let us know in the comments, and he will model it on next week's post.

Also, if mew need your weekly Melvyn video fix, here's his latest TikTok where he is brutally assaulting the Giant Pumpkins catnip kicker toy. What a heathen!  MOL

 Unboxing The Halloween Feline & Fiction Box

Mew know we had a subscription with Feline and Fiction for ages, and then it lapsed and we forgot about it. Anyhoo last month we saw the Halloween box on Instagram and decided to sign up for 3 more months.

Here's their Halloween Black Cat Box unboxed with the invaluable help of Fudge and Melvyn.

It was filled with a really great selection of goodies; we especially liked the purple bats and the P.A. loved the little bag and oil burner!

We've had a bumper-packed Halloween week; here are the links in case mew missed anything!

Welcome to The BBHQ Midweek News Round-Up ~ Chillin' with Smooch, Fudge's Supurr Surveillance Services PLUS Funday Morning Playtime, and Melvyn's Latest Shopping Haul - What Should He Wear First?

 Epic Greetings Furiends

Welcome to the BBHQ midweek news round-up!

Thanks for joining us today, mew know how much we love your company. We've had a busy few days at BBHQ, there's still lots going off in the garden, and we're waiting for a can of fence paint to be delivered so we can finish off the new fence panels behind the new deck. 

The P.A. has got 350 bulbs to plant which include tulips, daffs and alliums etc, then she bought two new rambling roses which are a creamy white colour and highly fragrant, so they need planting somewhere. Plus we have to sort out a lot of the larger plant pots, as things need moving and other plants need potting/planting on, so there's a lot going on.

And there's been no sign of the hedgehogs in weeks, so we're unsure what's happening with Prickles and Co, the P.A. asked her cousin next door a couple of weeks ago if he'd seen them, and he hasn't, so maybe they have found a new haven, or they've gone exploring and will turn up again soon??? We'll keep mew posted, but even if they don't return we're supurr happy that were part of their journey.

First up in the news this week

Chillin' with Smooch

Smooch can be so cute and comical in the way he sits and the positions he can get into; this was him just chillin' and taking it easy last night.

No other B Team memfur has ever sat like this on the sofa, he makes it look effortless.

And here's something that mew didn't know about Smooch:

He always gets on the TV remote, Sky TV Remote and DVD Player remote when reclining on the upstairs sofa, he likes lay across them which can't be comfy, and he does alter the volume and change channels! MOL 

We noticed Melvyn was doing the same thing on Sunday, what do mew think it means?

Next up in the news

 Fudge's Supurr Surveillance Services

Fudge is available to hire! 

No job too high, too big or too boring, email for more details and rates. 

See him in action on TIKTOK, he takes his job very seriously.

And check out Funday Morning Playtime with Fudge

This is what he does in his downtime when the serious stuff is out of the way.

He loves his catnip, and he still adores the catnip pumpkin stalk from the pumpkin pouffe we made years ago! 

Check out his latest TikTok video to see all the fun.

Finally this week

Melvyn's Latest Shopping Haul

It seems like Melvyn has a taste for online shopping.

He's funding this new passion for fashion by selling pictures of his paws and toe beans on OnlyPaws. Apparently, it's quite lucrative and there's purrlenty of opportunity for a young smexy mancat with cute mittens to make a few extra pounds each week.

Melvyn would like mew to decide which one he should model furst?

The options from left to right are:

1. Rambunctious Ravens

2. Autumn Acorns

3. Eye Be Seeing Mew

4. Raven Collar and Tie

 Let us know in the comments, and Melvyn will model it on next week's post.

>^.^<

We'll be back next week with some more Q & A, so if mew have anything ask, we'll reply on next week's post.

That's us done for today, we will be back on Friday with the last Fluffers of the current season as Amber will be back with her book reviews the following week, and if mew missed Monday's post click here to catch up on part 5 of our epically epic pirate adventure rerun.
