And the winner is.........

The 2013 Cat Photo Contest is closed for another year – and we’ve had a tremendous response.  Because of the hundreds of photos we received, picking our winners was extremely difficult, but we’ve managed to narrow it down to three.  So without further ado, the winners are…………

3^rd Place – Harley and Davidson – submitted by Jayne

2^nd Place – Bootsie – submitted by Linda

And finally, the moment we’ve all been waiting for…………………

1^st Place goes to Mr. Big submitted by Marie-Helene! Congratulations!

All three of our winners will be receiving a 2012 Purrfect Days Wall Calendar autographed by the artist Drew Strouble, along with a cat themed journal, perfect for keeping track of all those kitty related tasks and appointments.

Our first place winner’s photo will be used as Drew’s reference for an original painting that will be featured in the 2013 "Purrfect Days" Pine Ridge Art Wall Calendar! The first place winner will also receive the #1/50 signed and numbered Artist's Proof plus a hand signed copy of the 2013 "Purrfect Days" full color calendar when it becomes available. Finally, the winner will also have first right of refusal to purchase Drew’s original painting.

We’d like to thank everyone so much for all of the wonderful entries.  There were tons of photos we would have loved to pick, so don’t give up hope if your special little guy or gal didn’t win this year.  Keep taking those great photos - your kitty might get his five minutes of fame next year!
