Pretty much I want to make a contest page dedicated to all pet lovers. Here and there, I'll have a contest up with a pet theme. (e.x "Sleepy Pets" ) I'll have you guys post pictures of your animals with the according theme. I will select a few of my favorite contestants ( 10 pets at the most ) and after the deadline has reached, I'll set a timed poll vote( about 3-4 days ) for everyone to choose their favorite entry!

I'll see how long I can pull this off until I get really busy with college but I hope this will be fun for everyone. I will be slow at responding to everyone's pictures so just be patient with me as I am pretty busy life outside of Gaia as well. Thanks for your understanding! Remember to keep this thread clean and fun and follow under the Gaia Rules. I'll work on better prizes and contests later on the road if this thread gets popular. =) Any ideas/suggestions/donations to contribute for prizes/contest would be much appreciated!

Any trolling/rude behaviors are not tolerated here.

NOTE:
This thread isn't about just showing off pure breeds or dogs and cats, ALL animals are welcome here aslong it applies to the contest rules. =) I hope that solves any confusion.

Feel free to suggest me what kind of themed contests I should do next, the more ideas the better!
Contest Rules: ( Please Follow! )
I want your pet's name with the picture and if you want, put a little info about her/him. ( Breed, age, favorite food/toy, etc ) Hint: Putting a little summary(or captions) of your pet may increase your chances of winning. wink
It HAS to be your pet, not your friend's, not a picture on the internet, etc.
Only one picture per entry, it can be a single or group pet picture.
It needs to be done by deadline, any other entries will be disqualified.
♡ Pic needs to be theme related! ( A clear picture of your pet is important. Any picture that's too hard to decipher, ( ex. can't see the pet, other objects in the way, etc ) will not likely to be chosen. )

♡ Judges ♡

I will need 'judges' to help me pick out some favorite entries next couple of contests. It's a tad hard for me to try and nick pick a handful of nice entries by myself out of so many I have to choose from! Each judge may only pick 1 or 2 personal favorite entries. They can resign anytime from judging, just please let me know. I may hand some gold and such for helping me!

My mum has a dog, a fish and two cats. : ] I volunteered at a cat shelter for a year in high school, and previously worked at a pet supply store a couple years ago.

Any other comments?:
I have over 100 animals (including goats, cows, rabbits, dogs, cats, ducks, chickens, and sheep), but my favorite animal, other than duckie, is my crippled cat named Odara (or crippy). She is very smart and fast, can climb the stairs and LOVES sleeping on my back at night.

Ted1ous
How often are you on Gaia?:
Tues-Wed afternoons from 4:00PM GMT
Mon-Thurs-Fri-Sat-Sun I check it at least several times a day.
What type of animals are you most interested in?:
I'm mostly interested in dogs, of all breeds and sizes!
About yourself?:
I'm about to turn eighteen, I live in South Australia along a beautiful coast-line. Currently I am studying Business and Admin. Cert II and III after completing these I will be rolling over to a Cert. IV and V in Animal Services and Veterinary Nursing. One of my secret pleasures is Philosophy, Voltaire is someone I have come to admire greatly.
My passions involve animals (particularly dogs), photography, music (Nirvana in particular), Old Cars like the FJ-WB Holden Utes, Chevrolet, Valiant and the Subaru Brumby. I have many things I enjoy doing (:
Owns two lovely dogs (affectionately nicknamed 'pigdogs'), Luca and Tessa, whom are pests, but very much loved. They are my light and sunshine in life, I wouldn't still be here and working so hard if it weren't for them. Tessa is a totally loopy Black German Shepherd, whenever I need a laugh I always go to see her, being around her always makes me happy. Luca is an Alaskan Mastiff, I always go to him for cuddles and sleeping in late Sundays, he's a big bear who loves hugs <3
I have a habit of picking up stray dogs, from January 2011 until now I have rescued and re-homed ten dogs, also have returned five dogs back to their owners. I do this because of my love for animals, I would hope someone would do the right thing by me too!
Any other comments?:
I'd love to make more friends on Gaia who share similar passions as myself, this judging position would be marvelous to take part in. I love looking at photos of adorable animals! Congratulations to the previous winner, by the way, it was such a cute photo x3
I am also aware I wrote WAY too much for this, but I'm a very passionate person razz

Name: Mameoyashi
How often are you on Gaia?: More than I'd care to admit, to be honest XD At least a little while every day though, so I can check back regularly.
What type of animals are you most interested in?: I don't really have a "most interested in". I mean, I own cats, a dog and a lizard and there are animals I would never own myself (birds, for example), but that doesn't mean I'm not interested in them in a general sense. I'd be just as likely to vote for a bird as anything else because they can be pretty damn photogenic :3
About yourself?: I think I spilled into this section a tiny bit during the previous question XD I've grown up around all different kinds of animals, I've own primarily dogs, cats, fish, one bird and one lizard in my lifetime but two of my uncles owned farms and we visited them a few times a month when I was young so I was well acquainted with their working animals.
Any other comments?: Don't know what else to say really. I love animals, I like this contest, I'd like to help out if I could.

♡ Name:
Morphine Kiss
♡ How often are you on Gaia?:
Pretty well every day, except when I have to take my Mom somewhere and they don't have internet access. Pretty rare that happens, though, to not have internet access.
♡ What type of animals are you most interested in?:
Well, the most obvious would be Rats, they have a special place with me. But I really love exotic animals of all types, and i'm a sucker for cats and dogs. <3 I'm not really biased and i'm always willing to learn the pros and cons of a new kind of pet!
♡ About yourself?( Optional ):
I work at a pretty awesome Pet Shop, and i'm attending college, and i'm married! Oddly enough in college i'm majoring in Psychology. I have a lot of animals and I also foster animals, mostly just ones who are pregnant and going to give birth, but I also foster sick or hurt animals as well so they can be forever home ready. I spend a lot of time with animals, and doing research on animals on the side. I tend to cool down with drawing or playing video games when i'm not on Gaia, or just playing with my pets! For anyone with any more curiosity you can always check out my Gaia Profile, where I also have pictures of my pets! I also dabble a bit in Photography especially during the summer time, and enjoy spending quite a bit of time hiking or just checking out nature when it's warm.
♡ Any other comments?:





Im in need of judges! (Full )
Judge's Requirement:
♡ Must be atleast online enough to keep up with contest events and choosing entries. ( I'll give you pm's on when and what the contest will be. )
♡ Must be unbiased towards all pet entries, meaning you can't favor just a certain type of breed, animal, etc. Give all entries an equal fair shot.
♡ Cannot choose their own submitted entries for favorites, but another judge can/may.

Fill out this entry if you're interested and post.

Name: Max
Age: 9 currently, 8 at the time of the photo.
About the picture: Not very green, but I love this picture because I took it two days after I brought him home from the Humane Society. He had been in the pokey for three months and had a bad case of kitty depression that was seriously affecting his health, but he looks like he's smiling here... it makes me happy every time I look at it, he looks so happy and relaxed to have a home! heart

He made a full recovery after four months, and now enjoys scratching his cardboard pad, spying on the neighbor's chickens, and waking me up at 8am begging to get fed with his odd little meow - he goes "mao-wow?" or, when he's especially hungry, "mao-ow-wow?"

Thanks! Yeah, she runs with her little boxer "boyfriend" to my nana's house 3 streets down when I'm not paying attention. Then she plays with her buddies there and comes home with my nana! That's why she looks so pooped haha.
