Save Our Cats and Kittens (SOCKS), a nonprofit free-roaming, no-kill cat shelter, is giving cat owners a chance to make their pets famous while supporting a good cause.
- The organization has launched its “Show Us Your Kitties” 2025 calendar contest, inviting participants to submit photos of their cats for a chance to be featured.
To enter, cat owners can upload a picture of their pet and encourage friends and family to vote. The entry fee is $5, which includes five votes. Additional votes can be cast for a $1 donation each.
The cat with the most votes will be featured on the calendar cover and receive SOCKS merchandise. The next 12 highest-voted cats will each represent a month in the calendar.
For a $10 donation, participants can also reserve a specific date in the calendar to commemorate their cat’s “gotcha day,” birthday, or other special occasions. These spots are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Cats that don’t make the top 13 but receive at least 50 votes will be included in a collage on the back cover. The contest is open to all cats, including pets, fosters, and community cats from around the world. SOCKS affiliation is not required for entry.
- Interested cat owners can find the contest link on the SOCKS Facebook page or at gogophotocontest.com/saveourcatsandkittens. The contest closes at 9 p.m. on Oct. 30.
