Cutest Critter Contest 2025

Updated: Sep 29

As we start wishing for the temperatures to drop, Paws in Prison has an annual fundraiser to remind you that cooler weather is on its way! It's never too early to consider those stocking stuffers and to prepare for scheduling next year. What better way to share cheer than with a calendar sporting your pet's photo alongside 11 other fuzzy smiles?


So start snapping those photos and entering your Cutest Critter! You can enter your Cutest Critter photo beginning Monday, September 1, 2025 to start promoting your photo to your friends and families. 


Your critter can be any pet, living or who crossed the rainbow bridge, who has stolen your heart, not just dogs. You will have the entire month of September to not only enter the contest, but also to get everyone you know to vote for your Cutest Critter.  Each vote translates to a $1 donation to Friends of Paws in Prison, and folks can vote as often and for as many critters as they wish. For example, 50 votes requires a $50 donation.  


The top 12 photos with the most votes will receive a  2026 Friends of Paws in Prison Cutest Critter Calendar with each month represented by one of the top 12 Cutest Critter photo winners. These calendars will subsequently be available on our website merchandise page for approximately $25 each after the end of the contest.


Above is the cover of last year's calendar.
