Trump Your Cat - Picture Of The Month August 2015 - extended to Aug 20

"Trump your cat" is the code name (and hashtag!) for the social media trend of sharing pictures of your cat with clumps of hair on its head, made to look like  Donald Trump's iconic hairstyle  [td]Spring Naturals
[/td]
This month's winner will be getting prizes by both sponsors! 
And an assortment of Bravo all-natural cat treats

Prizes can be shipped within the US only but please don't let that stop you from joining in the fun! If you win, I'm sure we can think of a US-based shelter you can donate the prize to (or even to another TCS member!). The same goes for those of you whose kitties have food sensitivities.

Submissions will be accepted through Wednesday, August 19th. 

The Rules:

1. Choose the best picture you have for our monthly theme and post it to this thread. Please mention the cat's name!
    
2. Image needs to be clear and not too small. 480 pixels high by 640 pixels wide minimum should be a good enough size, but larger is better.
3. One submission per member please 
   
4. Use of Photoshop or other Photo editing software to add "hair" to the photo is not allowed.

Photos will not be monitored during the contest. If your photo is found to be too small or unclear, it will not be included in the voting stage.

Our cats are ALL amazingly beautiful! This friendly photo contest is about the way in which the cat is captured in the picture. We're not looking for professional photography, but do try to keep things like image quality, lighting and composition in mind. 

Good luck everyone!

Bumping! I know it's a challenging theme this month but come on, you can trump your cat with pretty much anything! Let us know if you have work in progress too 

Here is Camelot!

Do the cats have to be of Trump's gender?!

Not at all! They just need to be felines, both males and females accepted. 

Cheating is allowed btw, especially if you happen to have a sphynx.   See the examples in this article -

Well, I'd definitely have to find a way to cheat. Milly's a DSH, and a kitten, and I have yet to get any globs of hair from her when combing/brushing! I'd have to cheat...

Ok, Anne & Columbine, I took you up on this challenge.

I'm afraid I can only cheat. Milly is too young to have lost any hair yet; this was the closest "hair" handy. I had to use a prop. And the only way I could get any kind of "comb over photo" of her ("wind-blown" comb over?) was after she'd played in the tub with the faucet drips, then had retired to her basket to suckle her fleece blankie and purr.


"Don a Da-Bird and Make America Great Again" - eh?

I seriously doubt my entry works at all, though. But it's always fun to spend time with Milly!

I think feathers have serious possibilities as hairpieces PushPurrCatPaws :nod:

Shadow is long overdue for a serious grooming session so I'll have to see what I can come up with at some point. There's always a chance I'll resort to pony hair though.....

Watch this space! :lol3:

This was a challenge!  I can always get plenty of hairpiece material 

Here's Ming! I thought this would be fitting - what with the glowing eyes and all

But here we are:  Hannah Trumpette.

I like all the entries so far, but I have to admit that Hannah really has the pout down cold!!

Bumping this up for more entries.

Poor Abby would make a good "caption This"

since it doesn't need to be jaspurr's own fur, and snick has plenty of sheddy hairs............

here's our Jaspurr with a snick-hair 'Trump-doo' --

mods or @Anne -- is this photo clear enough?

Looks good enoughealth to be entered. If you have a better shot, feel free to post it instead
