Welcome to another BBHQ selfie!

Today, Pandora is here with her sunny selfie atop the giant mill wheel 'cake' in the garden! MOL

Pandora's Sunny Selfie


Pandora,  long‑haired torti brown and black cat sits proudly on top of a series of mill wheels that look like a giant stone cake in a sunlit garden. Green plants grow around the base of the stone, and leafy trees fill the background. Sunlight highlights the cat’s fur, giving the scene a warm, peaceful feel. The text reads “Pandora’s Sunny Selfie ©BionicBasil® Sunday Selfies Blog Hop.”

Pandora loves getting on top of the mill wheels, and from here she is quite high up and can survey all the BBHQ garden until all the trees pop, and then this spot becomes hidden among the foliage, like a secret bird-watching platform! MOL

Welcome to another BBHQ selfie selection. 

If mew were here on Wednesday and saw The Midweek News, mew would have seen Smooch in this same pot, fast asleep, like a supurr snoozy furry heathen. 

This photo was PRE-the P.A. getting the shears on the plants to tidy them up for spring.

Smooch's Supurr Snoozy Selfie 


Smooch, our adorable tripawed snoozer, is pictured curled up inside a round metal tub overflowing with soft, grass‑like plants. His eyes are barely open as he wakes from a glorious sun‑soaked nap, wearing his tiny red collar with a bell. The background is full of warm wooden textures and natural garden vibes. copyright www.bionicbasil.com

There are two of these tin tubs with grass in them, and Smooch likes to alternate between them, especially when the sun is out. It's his 'go to' spot for ultimate relaxation and epic 'in nature' naps.

But just look at his supurr Smoochy face, he'd just woken up and could barely open his eyes! MOL

Everypawdy should have a tin tub of ornamental grass to snooze in, it's 100% Smooch Approved and Guaranteed For The Most Epic Outdoor Napping Experience Ever!
 
**DISCLAIMER**

We accept no liability or responsibility if your pot of grass isn't as comfy as Smooch's! MOL

We’re still working through the new GFX+ series on BeFunky, and today’s pick is Neon Noir.

The effect was created with Befunky - Neon Noir GFX+ with changes to colour hue and variation.

All in all, it's very pop-arty and terrifically neon, with just enough black to give it that moody noir vibe, and it's a paws up, from Smooch!

Welcome to another BBHQ selfie selection. 

Today, Ginger Floof Fudge is sharing an intimate moment with the catmint!!! MOL

Fudge's Epic Spring Selfie


Fudge an orange cat with a fluffy tail sits on a stonemill whel in a spring garden, wearing a orange collar and looking toward a patch of green plants aka catmint and red tulips. Trees, shrubs, and a building with a red roof appear in the background under a partly cloudy sky. “copyright www.bionicbasil.com” is shown at the bottom.

Look at that face, he knows that summer is coming and the catmint will be prolific and heavenly very soon! MOL

He's now adopted a new approach to catmint and catnip cultivation, which involves talking to the plants, as Vera, the bunker A.I., told him that playing music and speaking to the plants really helps with growth.

Fudge has also asked Humphrey to create a sound system that can be placed around the garden so the plants, flowers, and trees can experience ambient music, encouraging a harmonious environment for maximum output...

Amber is calling him, The Catnip and Catmint Whisperer! 

Fudge says he's actually becoming a botanical guru! MOL
