Who asked us if we'd like to try their Purr for Nature goodie box, of course we'd love to try one; your subscription boxes are legendary at BBHQ!



So let's show mew what was in the Purr for Nature box.

Fudge was really excited to see what was in the box this time.

And here's a closer look at all the lovely goodies!

 Fudge was very helpful and did assist the P.A. a couple of times or maybe not (MOL) and mew can see Melvyn chase after the toys! 


Or watch direct on YouTube

As always Gus & Bella delivered oodles of happiness to the B Team cats and their human, aka The P.A. 

Their subscription boxes are always an utter delight to open, mew never know what mew going to discover, but mew do know it's going to be fabulous!

The Purr for Nature box was full of fabulous things all inspired by their sustainability, which we love.

The felted wool balls and catnip cushion were very well received as were the Catit treats and tuna.

The P.A. was thrilled with the reusable straws with a bag and cleaning brush. The shopping bag is a handy addition to keep in her handbag, and the wooden keyring will be used for the potting shed door, a purrfect match. 

As we've found with each Gus & Bella box we've reviewed, they are expertly curated and guaranteed to purrlease most cats and their staff.

We give the Purr for Nature box 10 out of 10! 

And to see our previous Gus and Bella box reviews, here are the links:




For context, so mew know how good the quality is on the items they pick for the boxes; in the November 2019 box there was a mug with Don't Stress Meowt printed on it - that mug is the P.A.'s favourite. It goes in the dishwasher at least four times a week, and it's still going strong nearly three years later.


Thank mew furry much to all the team at Gus & Bella for letting us try their ameowzing Purr for Nature box.

Welcome to

What's In The Box BBHQ Review ©BionicBasil®

Wunderpurr greetings fabulous furiends

Today we're sharing one of our *sponsored posts with mew from the fabulous peeps at...


Who asked if we'd like to purrsonalise some goodies from their epic print on demand store.



Let's show mew what was in the box.

Firstly we asked if we could use this epically epic photo.

 And once we'd got the paws up from the supurr helpful Printster Team, we went and chose some goodies to emblazon this classic B Team picture on.

We chose the fabulous magic sequin cushion cover which came with the cushion pad too, a pair of custom Smooch socks and a mug that reveals a picture when it gets warm, aka heat sensitive.

Just watch the video to see it all!


Or watch direct on YouTube


When we say we loved everything, we LOVED everything!

Talk about bringing a huge smile to your day, Printster ticked all the boxes in that department, so much so that the P.A. is thinking of framing the Smooch socks and the beautiful sequin cushion cover! MOL

They have oodles and oodles of different items to customise from coasters to cards to keyrings to t-shirts, and even to wrapping paper, their gift catalogue is extremely varied and vast. And most impawtantly the quality is excellent.   

If mew need a custom gift for anyone for any occasion, we can't recommend Printster enough, they are in two words 

EPICALLY EPIC!

The B Team give them 10 out of 10.


We would like to say a furry special thanks to the pawesome peeps at Printster for giving us the oppurrtunity to try a selection of their amazing customisable gifts ~ THANK MEW FURRY MUCH, mew really made our day!

Many thanks for joining us today, and don't furget to stop by on Sunday when we will be back with another supurr selfie, and just in case mew're wondering Melvyn will be announcing the winner of his birthday giveaway on next Wednesday's Midweek News Round-Up.

Until then, stay fluffy

WHAT'S IN THE BOX? ~ Product Review featuring The Laser Tail Automatic Laser Light by Petsafe with Melvyn & Fudge

Welcome to

What's In The Box BBHQ Review ©BionicBasil®

Happy Caturday Fluffies

Today we're sharing a *sponsored post with mew from the ameowzing peeps at...


...who contacted us a while ago and asked if we'd like to try some of their supurr products again, and we were so excited when a box arrived at BBHQ. 

This is the final review of three, see the links below for the previous reviews, and today we're sharing the Laser Tail Automatic Laser Light Cat Toy, so read on to see what we thought.


>^.^<

So let's show mew what was in the box.

This was everything we received, and Fudge knew what he wanted to try!

What's In The Box ©BionicBasil® PetSafe Laser Tail Toy - Fudge Picking What He Wanted To Play With

Let's get started!



Setting Up: 

The set up was supurr easy.

What's In The Box ©BionicBasil® PetSafe Laser Tail Toy - Fudge Setting Up The New Laser Toy

Fudge checked everything out before flipping the laser toy over and placing 3 AA batteries into the compartment before replacing the small battery cover.

And mew can clearly see in the middle photo on the bottom row, that there is a small round button to the left of the unit.

To start the fun, all mew do is push that button and place the Laser Tail toy on the floor, wheels down, obviously! MOL

Watch our video below to see how we got on, so sit back, chillax and hit the play button.


If for any reason to video doesn't play, please click here to watch direct on YouTube.



Our closing thoughts

The B Team are still getting used to the new Laser Tail toy, it is a little bit noisy, but it has a motor so it's not going to be silent.

Early indications suggest that this will definitely be a totally top paw addition to the toy box at BBHQ.

At the moment, they are following more than chasing, and they prefer a darker room for the laser toy to trundle around.

The great news is, that the toy works really well on the floors at BBHQ: from smooth wood through to heavy jute rugs, so the little robot can traverse between the different surfaces easily enough. It also is good at manoeuvring itself around the furniture and other obstacles. Plus, it has a 10-minute timer which switches off automatically.

It really is a nifty bit of kit, and it's been really entertaining watching The B Team interact with it. And as with the Laser Dot Dancing Cat Toy, we have to conclude that this is just as epic.

This is a totally top toy, and we give it ten out of ten paws as it:

has a 10-minute playtime

is supurr fun 

is excellent for feline enrichment 

is highly entertaining with or without pawrents in the room 

increases daily exercise 

nurtures natural hunting instincts

keeps your daily step rate up which is especially good for indoor kitties

prevents boredom and incites natural curiosity

plus it looks ameowzingly stylish too in gloss white

This toy ticks all the boxes, and mew only need 3 x AA batteries to enjoy hours and hours and hours of fun.

In summary

This toy is the cat's whiskers!

We would like to thank the supurr peeps at PetSafe for sending their ameowzing Laser Tail Automatic Laser Light Toy for us to try ~ THANK MEW FURRY MUCH!

WHAT'S IN THE BOX? on In The Spotlight ~ Product Review featuring The PetSafe Dancing Dot Laser Cat Toy

Welcome to

What's In The Box on In The Spotlight ©BionicBasil®

Happy Caturday Fluffies

Today we're sharing a *sponsored post with mew from the ameowzing peeps at...


...who contacted us a while ago and asked if we'd like to try some of their supurr products again, and we were so excited when a box arrived at BBHQ a few weeks ago. 

Today is the second review of three, as we got three different products to test, try and use here at BBHQ, how exciting, epically exciting!

Two of the surprise products in the box, we have actually reviewed before, and today we're sharing Dancing Dot Laser Cat Toy, so read on to see how much we liked it.


>^.^<

So let's show mew what was in the box.

And he was rather keen to get things happening!

How cute is that?


Installation: 

Installation was supurr easy, and it took less than 1 minute to find 3 x AA batteries and set up.

Next, locate the 'on' button on the left side of the unit, press and off mew go.

What's In The Box ©BionicBasil® PetSafe Dancing Dot Laser Cat Toy - On Button

Finally, find a suitable place to put the dancing Laser Dot Toy and let the fun begin.

Watch our video below to see how we got on, so sit back, chillax and hit the play button.


If for any reason to video doesn't play, please click here to watch direct on YouTube.

Mew can select One Time Play by pressing the button once, and the session will last 15 minutes, or for even more fun hold the button down until mew hear 2 beeps and mew can have the Play All Day mode set, and every 2 hours it will turn on for a 15-minute session. So purrfect for getting snoozes in-between playtimes. 

It does make a little bit of noise as the motor whirrs the laser dot around but after a few minutes mew hardly notice it. Mew purrobably can't hear the motor whirr on the video because of the mewsic, but at approx 57 secs, mew can see Melvyn's very first reaction to it. Though it didn't take long for him to forget about the noise and get chasing the dot!  

Fudge got supurr curious at 1 min 34 secs and batted it to face the other way! MOL

We would suggest from this that wherever mew site or position it, make sure that it's safe and secure so it won't get knocked off anything, though as we were moving it around for the video we didn't secure it.



Our closing thoughts

We've been having great fun with this toy and let us tell mew why.

We love laser toys here and the P.A. often entertains us with the little handheld ones, but this laser toy is so much more than one of those.

As we said, there are 2 play modes, so if mew just want a quickie session mew can get that sorted or if your peeps are going out and leaving mew alone while they go to wurk etc... the Play All Day mode is purrfect for this scenario.

It has a little strap attached to it so mew can hang it from door handles, cupboards or wherever mew like, or mew can just place it on a shelf or flat surface; though if your kitty is a bit like Fudge mew might want to stick it down with something like a command strip to stop it getting toppled off.

 We also liked that the laser patterns were random and changed constantly, plus the higher mew put it a bigger and faster pattern is projected on the floor, so if mew have a huge room put it as high as mew safely can to use the floor space for maximum zoomies or for a smaller room, lower down for a smaller chase, and as mew can see in the video we tested it on various heights to demonstrate this. 

We think that the bigger faster pattern is definitely the way to get a better wurkout, especially for any kitty that's looking to shed a bit of weight if they've been overindulging during the lockdown.

This is a totally top toy, and we give it ten out of ten paws as it:

has 2 play modes

is supurr fun 

is great for feline enrichment 

is highly entertaining with or without pawrents in the room 

increases daily exercise 

nurtures natural hunting instincts

keeps your daily step rate up which is especially good for indoor kitties

prevents boredom when alone

plus it looks ameowzingly stylish too in gloss white, so will suit all decors

This toy ticks all the boxes, and mew only need 3 x AA batteries to enjoy hours and hours and hours of fun.

In summary

This toy is the cat's whiskers!
