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
personal favorite entries. They can resign anytime from judging, just please let me know. I may hand some

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.

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

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.

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.
