Title: Help Needed
Post by: Charlotte T (thepawfessionals) on January 20, 2007, 16:50:22 PM

Hi All

Just wondered if I could pick a few of your brains, it's National Pet Month from 7 April to 7 May and the theme this year is "Love is ...".  Now some of you may be aware that I run a doggy walking/cat sitting business and I'd like to partake in National Pet Month again.  Last year I ran a photo competition with the funds going to the Andover Cats Protection Group, I just don't know what to do for this year and as there are loads of creative bods out there on Purrs I thought you may be able to help me.  All suggestions gratefully received  :thanks:

Did you run this on your site Charlotte? and if so is that what you want to do again?

Hi Gill

The photo competition last year was advertised on my site but I also had a load of leaflets printed up which I delivered around Andover.  The comp was judged by a doggy groomer and the winners were shown on my site and had very nice rosettes given.  I would really like to do something a little bit different this year but just don't have any ideas.

The National Pet Week (month) website is here www.nationalpetmonth.org.uk

Hmmmmmmmmm was wondering if you could hold a cat and dog show by photos......it may be a bit similiar to what you did last year though.

Get peeps to enter their cats and dogs under pedigrees and moggys........sorry dont know doggy equivalent. Could have various dog catergorys like Crufts and cat  categories like at Supreme and then the best in show cat and dog.

Its something that was suggested on CC for one of our fund raising things, dont know if we will get round to doing it on Purrs  :sneaky: :shify:
