Jumping Juniperberries it's Fluffing Scorchio

Smooch escaped from the back door on Monday lunchtime, and the P.A. finally caught him on the bench by the lawn.

He said, "Jumping Juniperberries it's fluffing scorchio. Any chance mew could carry me back indoors?"  

The P.A. promptly snaffled him in her arms and hurried back inside, where he spent the afternoon in front of the fan, having his fur ruffled by a gentle breeze.

Finally this week

The Garden Has Dried Up

Fudge was outside later on Monday evening when it was a litter cooler and was really sad to see that all the plants and flowers look really sad.

The lawn is like a scorched tinder box; even some trees are dropping their leaves to survive.

Here's hoping it cools down as the week progresses and we start to get a few rain showers, although huge rainstorms with copious amounts of water can fluff off, as that kind of rainfall will flood everything. And we don't need any of that drama.


And finally, before we go, we'd just like to say a huge congratulations to all the Certificate of Excellence winners from the Cat Writer's Association!!!

That's us done for today. We'll be back tomorrow with this year's Crafting for Your Shelters post, and  Amber will be back on Caturday with a surprise book review. And if mew missed Monday's post, click here to catch up on The Complete Guide to Growing Catnip.

Thankful on Thursday with Basil and Blog Hopping with Pepsi



Supurr salutations pawesome pals

I here today being uber thankful fur the little things this week!

As we've been having supurr, mega, intense SCORCHIO weather this week I've been most grateful fur:

My shades

My drinks hat

and

My factor 30 sunscream

It was 33C on Tuesday with not even a whiff of a breeze, us Blighty cats aren't used to such temperatures as normally our summers are 90% rain, 5% mediocre overcast days, 3% nice and 1% propurr nice, and 1% supurr scorchio.  We're usually lucky to breach 21 - 24C on average so this week we've been melting and having a fur coat doesn't help.

Luckily the house is really old with thick walls, so downstairs is like a fridge in this weather as long as no-one opens a door or window! MOL

Upstairs it's a bit of a sauna but we have ceiling fans so it's not so bad, we have put a request in fur air conditioning, yet as of the time of this post we have not heard back from the management.

So stay cool furriends and keep the chill happening and don't furget to keep well hydrated

Purrs
