Our Winner

pets_kittens_0710_9550913_12506384.jpg

Our winner is Amanda Taylor from Rochester, Minnesota, for this photo of Emmett, a stray. "Emmett was one of four foster kittens my husband and I took in," Amanda writes. "They needed a temporary home to get healthy before they could be spayed/neutered and available for adoption through a fantastic local animal program we volunteer for, Camp Companion. He is actually still available for adoption; two of his siblings have been adopted already. "Emmett is just about the sweetest, most adorable kitten I've ever known. From the start, he has been a 'lap kitty' and loves to snuggle. He was quite ill when he was first found and thus did not have a voice. He would open his mouth so wide to 'talk' and nothing would come out. But he is a very happy and healthy little boy now. This little munchkin holds such a special place in my heart--his wonderful personality is so immediately evident, and no one can resist scooping him up in their arms for a cuddle. He will make someone the most wonderful companion--he is a real gem!"

Giant Yawn for a Tiny Kitten

Leo and Daisy, Maine coons from Shelter Island, New York. "Even at just 8 weeks old, Leo and Daisy (yawning) were inseparable," writes omiopa. "They are now each about 20 pounds. Born on Christmas Day, they were the best present! Leo is so smart; even the vet says that Leo thinks he is a dog. His favorite trick and pastime: catching his treats in mid-air when we throw them to him. Snuggling with us and each other is commonplace; they're always craving love and affection from anyone who passes them by."

I don't have kittens any more, and I lost Baker two years ago, so this is a very special picture to me."

She turned out to be the runt (she's still really tiny), but she's very smart and very sweet. I named her Cricket because she bounces around like one; we soon discovered that crickets are the only bug she eats! Here she is, all tucked-up into a little ball, on the day I brought her home."

The Napkin Boy

pets_kittens_0710_9517300_23562986.jpg

Tazz, a Maine coon mix from Northwood, New Hampshire. "This little boy was the perfect little shelter cat," writes ColleenBerri. We adopted him when he was a little kitten and knew he was perfect instantly. He always loved sleeping in the napkin basket; this picture was taken when he could still fit inside. We love our little devil. R.I.P."
