Pawesome Greetings Supurr Furiends

Welcome to the BBHQ midweek news round-up!

We've actually had a few hot days at BBHQ, even though it's cooled down again, so we think that summer's heat criteria has been met for this season!  And any other warm days will be a bonus! MOL

And we've just got to share this, mew may remember a few weeks ago, we mentioned a new rose, a rather special rose that we planted called Raspberry Ripple by Harkness, and we weren't sure if it was going to bloom this year.

Well, guess what?

It did!

Isn't it epic?

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

Parsley was hanging out next to the lions on the pond patio on Caturday, I think he was channelling some majestic energy from them! MOL

I don't know what Smooch was talking to Amber about, but I did hear a rumour that he was a little hissed off that Amber made Parsley the Library Manager, and had not offered the job to him first! 

OH DEAR! MOL

Finally this week

Melvyn's Modelling The Top Bandana Pick


This week Melvyn is modelling the fourth bandana of July, Cat Bugs!

We had a bit of a fluff-up on this week's modelling assignment. The P.A. did all the filming as normal, and Melvyn went off for a catnap because it was so exhausting. Then, when the P.A. was splicing the clips together, she realised that she'd not filmed Melvyn walking up and down the catwalk. Instead, she filmed herself walking the catwalk, and she only had two clips of Melvyn!

Talk about hitting the record button at the wrong time. Honestly, mew couldn't write it! MOL

Anyhoo, the two clips are cute, so take a look. 

Check out Melvyn strutting his stuff on your preferred social media channel:

Melvyn will be wearing the #1 pick next week, and we'll be sharing another brand new collection for August; we can't wait to show mew the new designs.

Check out this week's sunspot of the week

As it was really rather hot on Friday, Fudge got himself a rather sensible sunspot at teatime!

He's like a little lion!

Anyhoo, he did have the brains to lay on the cool granite mill wheels in some dappled shade! MOL
