The theme for August 2009 is: “Bad cats, bad cats, whatcha gonna do?†or naughty kitties!

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. August. 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 August 23, 2009.

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

I may change my mind but this is the only time I caught them with the camera being naughty.

Dusty is the one who pulled out the drawer to climb on the counter when they were little. Rusty just went along.

Unless my cats do something worse in the next little bit (well, something that I catch on camera...they do bad things all the time!), here's my entry:

I've shown this pic before but now is a perfect time to do it again. Kuura 'rearranging' the bag I was going to take to a paper recycling..

These "bad kitty" photos are hilarious! My three get in plenty of trouble, but never when I have camera in hand...They are very good at running when they know they've been naughty!

Not a great quality picture but cute and the only good one I have. I'm not sure I have the original though so this may be the only size I have.

After hearing a crash in the living room, this is what I found:

Edited to add: Okay, I cannot get my pictures to post on here no matter what I do. I guess I give up.
