PetSmart Charities will make donations to the 501(c)(3) animal welfare organizations chosen by the first, second and third place winners and award Visa gift cards and prizes to the 10 finalists and three winners whose videos about their pet adoption story have the most votes.

  1. Looks like a fun contest. I haven't attempted to make/post videos yet, but it is next on my list. By the way, I keep meaning to tell you, I love your blog redesign, it's so pretty!

  2. That's a great contest! (But our mommy groaned when she saw it - videos take so much *time* to do well, she sez...). Of course, aside from Maxie's deafness, there's nothing remarkable about any of our adoptions (ignoring the fact that, of course, we're the BEST cats EVER to be adopted by a human. Of course.)
