If you LOVE taking photos of your cat and want to help us save lives…..this contest is for YOU!

This year will be our 6th calendar contest......let's make it the best yet. Submit your best cat or kitten photo (high resolution please!) for a chance to win the honor of "Cover Cat", inside cover, back page, or one of 12 "Cats of the Month" in our upcoming 2021 Calendar.

Enter and vote as often as you like between July 24^th & August 31^st. Each photo entry is a $25 donation and includes a complimentary copy of the 2021 calendar. ALL photos submitted will be included somewhere in the calendar, even if they are not selected as one of the top 15 entries.

To be eligible as one of the top 15 photo winners, your cat/cats MUST have been ADOPTED from or FOSTERED for Nine Lives Foundation. Photos that bring in $100 or more in donations/votes but are not in the top 15 will be featured in special photo collages.



*** Reserve a Date***
If you have a special day for your cat - maybe their birthday or adoption date - and want their picture to appear on that date square you can reserve a specific date for a $5 donation by hitting "Reserve a Date" and entering your information. Please note that this ONLY reserves the date, it doesn't enter you into the contest - you ALSO need to enter the calendar contest and submit your $25 fee for each date you reserve! If you don't reserve a date, your kitty's picture will still appear somewhere in the calendar.

Calendars will be available for purchase in November for $15 and make wonderful and unique holiday gifts and a great way to show off your amazing felines to friends and family!


The competition gets intense as the top contenders fight for the honor of "Cover Cat" - Every $5 vote cast is a $5 donation to the Nine Lives Foundation! Ask your friends, family and co-workers to join in on the fun and help vote for your favorite photos. Keep checking this website daily to watch us get closer to our fundraising goal with every vote!

Photos must be of high quality & resolution to be considered for Cover Cat or Cat of the Month as they are enlarged to fit an 11 " X 10" page. (If we receive a photo that cannot be enlarged with adequate resolution, we may ask you to submit another photo).  Remember that the top 15 photo winners MUST have been ADOPTED from or FOSTERED for Nine Lives.

Good luck and have fun with this year's calendar contest! Every dollar we raise WILL make a difference for the cats and kittens - help us make our no-kill shelter the best place it can be! Thank you for supporting the Nine Lives Foundation - your donations make all that we do possible.

Adopt. Donate. Foster. Save Lives.
