City Dogs & City Kitties 2025 Calendar Contest

Welcome to the City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue 2025 Calendar Photo Contest!
To participate, enter your best photo of your furry friends (together, alone, CDCK alum or no!) for a donation of $30 and then, share your voting page with family and friends to drum up support for your image to win a spot in the 2025 City Dogs & City Kitties Calendar! Votes are $1 each and all funds raised will support the important operations of City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue.

Now is your chance to go through the hundreds of photos you have of your pets on your phone, or to bust out those pet costumes and stage a brand new photo shoot in your home! Have a dog and a cat that love to cuddle? Let's see it! Have a foster that has made themselves at home in your home? We want to see it!

This year's contest is not limited to CDCK alums. We want to see the dogs and cats of all of our supporters, even if they were not adopted from CDCK.

Photos submitted should be in horizontal format and should be 4 MB or more, ideally 300 DPI. The more pixels the better for printing purposes. If you are one of the 13 winners and your photo cannot be printed, we will reach out to you to get a larger version of the photo, or a new photo if the original is not usable. Images may also be used for other promotional and educational purposes, including but not limited to the City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue website, Facebook and Instagram pages. Please read all of the contest rules here.

The top 13 winners determined by the highest number of votes will have their photos featured in the 2025 City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue Calendar! The image with the most votes overall will have the honor of gracing our coveted cover spot.

Amazingly talented local DC artist and graphic designer Keaton Van Beveren will turn the images from the winners into CDCK's 2025 Calendar!

Not sure you want to submit a photo for the calendar contest? You can still support our 2025 Calendar Contest by voting for and sharing your favorite entries, or Reserve a Day on the calendar and we'll put your favorite photo of your pet on the date square of your choice for a donation of $50 (one pet per day, dates are first come, first served). You will have the opportunity to donate more than $50 per Reserve a Day if you would like! 

The contest begins at 12:00:00 PM (Eastern Time) on Saturday, June 1, 2024 and runs until 10:00:00 PM (Eastern Time) on Sunday, June 30, 2024 so get ready to put your best paw forward for a chance at local calendar fame! Good luck!

The next 12 winners as determined by those images with the highest number of votes at the close of the contest, will have their image featured as a month in the 2025 City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue Calendar! Each of these winners will receive 2 complementary copies of the final calendar.


Reserve a Day to Honor Your Pet
Just want a guaranteed spot in the calendar? Reserve a day to honor your pet. This can be for your pet's adoption anniversary, birthday, loved one's birthday, memorial or really any special day! Your pet's photo will appear on the day of your choice. Just choose your favorite photo and then choose the day and pay! First come first served! Once a date has been reserved, it will no longer be available. You will be able to make an additional donation to the rescue on top of reserving your day, if desired. You will be able to reserve a date for your pet until July 31, 2024 at 10 PM - after the contest is complete.
