The overall design feels cheerful and whimsical, like a fun feline news announcement.

Supurr Floofy Greetings Pawesome Furiends

Welcome to the BBHQ midweek news round-up!

Happy Wednesday, and thank mew so much for dropping by. Pull up a chair, get comfortable, and let’s dive into what’s been happening at BBHQ over the last few days.

The Weekly Weather Report

Oh my cod, it was so hot, utterly, heinously scorchio again all last week, we were so thankful for the fans and air con... luckily yesterday, Monday, it started to cool down, and today, it's even cooler, normal temps for this time of year.
 
So we're on pawtrol catching up with what's been happening outdoors, as we haven't had hardly any time out there in what seems forever! MOL 

A colourful illustrated weather report for the fictional village of Mewton‑Clawson, showing a detailed map with landmarks such as the standing stones, church, pub, woodland, fields, and BBHQ. Each location has a small weather icon and temperature for Monday. On the right, a five‑day forecast panel lists rising temperatures from pleasant to very hot. In the bottom corner, a cat wearing sunglasses lounges on an inflatable ring with a drink, adding a humorous touch. Speech bubbles provide playful commentary about the changing weather, and a “Paw‑Trol Tip” encourages shade, water, treats, and sensible siestas.
(Amber made the map, no we don't live by the sea, this is just wishful thinking on her part! MOL)

But the bad news is, apparently, allegedly, it's going to start heating up again... the P.A. is even thinking about getting the pool set up, because at her time of life, any more heat is not pleasant! MOL 

This is one of the catmint plants, and we love it!

A lush garden scene featuring a large, overflowing mound of catnip with dense purple‑blue flowers growing out of a millwheel and spilling over terracotta paving stones. Behind the catnip are taller plants with green foliage and clusters of pale pink flowers, creating a layered, vibrant display. The overall look is bright, full, and summery, highlighting an impressively large catnip plant in a well‑tended garden.

Since this photo was taken earlier in the month, it's even bigger now, yep, more to share, or not! MOL

Oh, and the P.A. found her propurr camera this week... it makes all the difference! 

Anyhoo, let's look at this week's top headlines.

Butterflies in various colours flutter above the dense blooms, creating a lively, cheerful meadow atmosphere. The composition is bright, lush, and full of movement, evoking a warm July day in a flourishing garden.

First up in the news this week

Flat Out with Smooch


A white cat with black markings lies stretched out on a tan fleece blanket decorated with paw prints. The cat is resting outdoors, surrounded by green plants and small pink flowers, creating a peaceful garden scene.

Smooch was flat out, he said, and I quote...

"Fluff this heat, I'm staying in the shade on my blanky!"

He wasn't outside long as the P.A. told him, it's 8 am, time to come back inside.

Next up in the news

Fudge On Pawtrol 


A fluffy orange cat walks through a sunlit garden filled with tall flowering plants and vibrant red blooms. Warm golden light filters through the foliage, creating a bright, summery atmosphere as the cat patrols the lush garden path.

Fudge enjoyed a wonderful pawtrol just as the sun was setting; it was rather magical!

The squirrels were hopping all over the place, the hedgehogs were snuffling around looking for some tasty slow-moving snacks, aka snails or slugs, before they headed to the snack station and watering hole, which we've now named Spike's 24/7 Taverna!

The birds were singing... and Fudge couldn't decide what to look at next!

In other news

Parsley's Purrfect Pose

Parsley struck the purrfect post on the lawn the other evening, and yes, he is in his bulking phase!!! MOL

Finally this week

Melvyn's Modelling The Top Bandana Pick


This week, Melvyn is modelling the first bandana of July. 

A tabby‑and‑white cat sits on a wooden surface beside a window, wearing a colourful tropical bandana decorated with flowers and parrots. Two small glass containers shaped like light bulbs, each holding a succulent plant, sit next to the cat. Sunlight streams through the window, illuminating the cat and plants, with a lush green garden visible outside.

He loves the parrot bandana, and speaking of birds, he also loves a bit of birdwatching from this purrticular spot, but says the catservatoy is like a heated goldfish bowl without the water at the moment! MOL

Yep, it's totally off limits during the daytime, and only gets opened after the P.A. has aired it out at dusk.
A bright, colourful summer garden filled with a mix of wildflowers in yellow, pink, purple, blue, red, and white. Several butterflies in vivid colours flutter above the dense blooms, creating a lively, cheerful meadow scene. The overall look is vibrant and full of movement, evoking a warm July day in nature.

Which one should he model next?


Here's the July Bandana collection, and we chose another really fun selection for mew this time.

And we've decided to give mew six to choose from, even though we only needed five!!!
 OH MY COD, the utter excitement of it all! MOL
The July 2026 Bandana Collection for Melvyn the cat, featuring six colorful and themed pet bandanas displayed in a grid. Designs include: yellow popcorn and movie print, blue cat-mermaid pattern, multicolored artistic cat faces, tropical parrots on black, pink butterflies on beige, and cactus pots on white. Readers will vote weekly for Melvyn to model each bandana throughout the month on www.bionicbasil.com
The July Collection:

Welcome to BBHQ on this delightful Sunday!

It was quite fraught there for a tiny moment as Smooch wanted to appear, but then Melvyn said it was his turn, as it's been ages and he'd already got the purrfect pic! MOL

So Supurr Model Melvyn is today's selfie supurr star, and Smooch will be here next week being all utterly furbulous!

Melvyn's Adorable Window Selfie 


A tabby cat named Melvyn, with brown, black, and white markings, he's sitting on decorative cat steps topped with a whimsical teapot‑and‑cupcake patterned cushion trimmed with pink pom‑poms. He faces a bright window with white blinds, looking toward the sunlight. Colourful fabrics rest on the windowsill, and green foliage outside adds to the cosy, cheerful feel of this Sunday Selfies Blog Hop moment.

This is a B Team favourite spot to chill, they can lurk on the *pawesome cat steps leading up to the window, and snoop in stealth into nextdoors front garden! MOL

Well as it's been hotter than Hades, we're inside having our fur ruffled by the fans all over the house, the blinds are shut, so it's rather relaxing! MOL

Later we may go for a garden pawtrol if the weather cools enough for fur coats outside.

The P.A. has been making sure that the hedgehogs, squirrels and birds have plenty of fresh water every day and snacks while this scorchio weather continues. Apparently, it will cool down by 10C tommorow, and oh my cod, are we looking foward to that! MOL

We'll be back in the morning with a supur fun post, but it's a surprise for now, but do join us as mew know how much we love your visits to BBHQ, it really makes our day!
