2025 Cat Calendar Photo Contest

Welcome to the Felius 2025 Cat Photo Calendar Fundraiser!

We're on a mission to raise money to sustain our life-saving programs! These include operating our open-concept cat shelter, facilitating adoptions, providing free community Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) services, supplying our volunteer-run Nursery, and so much more!

Participating is easier than chasing a laser pointer! Simply share your feline’s most iconic pose, then rally your friends, family, coworkers, neighbors, and hair stylists to vote for your cat’s photo. The more votes you get, the more likely you are to win awesome prizes!

Contest Dates: 10/03/24 - 10/30/24 11:59PM CST

Every entry and vote paves the way for our daring rescue missions. Plus, photos that fetch 20+ votes are PROMISED a spot on our calendar’s collage page!

And the prizes? They're purr-iceless! We’re talking calendar photo features, free mini pet photo sessions, complimentary cat playtime, and a whole lot more! See prize details below.

Get ready to snap, share, and strut your cat's stuff. Let's make this fundraiser the cat-tastic success it deserves to be!
