The theme for January 2009 is: “To rub or not to rub: Aye, there’s the rub!” or Kitty Tummies!

Basics:
NO CATS CAN BE HARMED FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS CONTEST! Mildly annoyed
, yes, but not actually harmed (pretty much goes without saying).


1.Only one entry per month, but you can change your mind and submit a different photo during the submission period.
2.No photo that has been featured in a past TCS Calendar can be submitted again. However, photos that were not in the top 3 (or 4 as the case may have been) can be resubmitted if they apply to the theme of the month. Additionally, photos can be submitted for more than one month but can only be voted in to the Calendar (top 3) once.
3.Rights to the winning photographs are granted to www.thecatsite.com for use in future TCS projects made available for purchase to other members and the public.

Photography

1. Photo and all rights must be owned by the submitter.
2.Photo entry must be at least 480 x 640 pixels, with higher resolution/size availability (by email) preferred.
3.Photo must be clear, focused, not manipulated by Photoshop (basic altering such as cropping, brightness, etc. is allowed) and apply to the theme of the month.
4.Photos that do not necessarily meet #2 and #3 can be entered, but will not make the final voting rounds.

Please be sure to tell us the name of the kitty(ies) in the photo, for award/future purposes.

The prize will include points, a custom signature and bragging rights for having the first, second and third place Ms. or Mr. January. The 1st place winner will also have a copy of the 2010 Cats of TheCatSite Calendar sent to them when it's finished. The calendar will include at least the top 3 place cats (possibly more depending on how close the votes are) from each monthly contest!

We also need to mention that winners will be asked to email full sized versions of the photograph to a moderator, and winning images will be used for future TCS projects made available for purchase to other members and the public (see above).

Deadline for submission is January 16, 2009.

All members, moderators, admin, and site owner are eligible for this contest.

Well, I posted this pic of Ricochet previously, but it wasn't a winner. So I'm gonna try again, b/c it's one of my favs and it just cracks me up!




I'm not sure if the size is okay and all, b/c it's a Walmart disc pic.
If it's not, just let me know what I need to do to fix it (if possible).

I'm a little confused. Is this the theme that was listed as "Kitty Tummies" in the voting? If so, here's my entry.

EDIT: Never mind. I was looking at the title of the thread. Just saw the theme listed in the middle of the rules.


Lion just hangin' out.

My entry, if I can do a foster kitten, is baby Jade from a few years ago.

I have been trying for ages to get a good pic of Topaz belly up. And this is the best so far. So until I get a better one...

Eh, it's the best I got right now. If I take another good one, I'll replace it. This is Kairi, laying how she does when she wants attention.

This is the best tummy pic I have right now...


I do have it larger.


This is his "Alas poor Yorick... Hey, what are you doing?" pose.

Kairi, again, this time propping herself up against the door. I really don't understand how this is comfortable! lol
