The theme for this month is Wintertime. And cats, of course. We're looking for pictures of your cats in a wintery background. It doesn't have to be snow, just whatever spells out winter for you. No holiday-themed pictures please.

Submissions will be accepted through Sunday, January 20th. Voting will then commence. Voting procedures to be determined based on the number of photos submitted.

The Rules:
 

1. Choose the best picture you have for our monthly theme and post it to this thread.
2. Image needs to be clear and not too small. 480 pixels high by 640 pixels wide minimum should be a good enough size.
3. One submission per member please
   
4. Please submit by uploading the picture to this thread. You may not "hotlink" but rather upload from URL or upload the file itself.

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!

It gets cold even on sub-tropical Japanese islands. Aya as a kitten (she was a winter kitten) in front of the space heater trying to stay warm.

For Abby, Winter is about watching her humans shovel the white stuff from the comfort of her heated perch.

Delilah admiring the tiny bit of snow we got last night. First snow we have seen in about 2 years and probably the only we will get this year. It's melted away already.

Poppy LOVES the Christmas tree, spends long hours sleeping under it and immediately dashes under it when we get one each year.

Thank you everyone for your submissions! It's time to close this thread and move on to the voting stage!

@Raintyger - I PM'ed you about your submission. I'm afraid it can't be entered this time because it's holiday-themed. Still a lovely picture so thank you for sharing that with us!
