How to vote for your favorite cat or dog
The deadline for submissions is noon on Thursday, Oct. 16.
Anyone living in SLO County can submit their cats and dogs for The Tribune’s cutest pet contest. You can enter multiple pets, but you must use a separate submission form for each animal.
If we receive more than 50 submissions, a newsroom committee made up of Tribune pet lovers will choose the top 50 pets in each category. Those cats and dogs will move onto public voting rounds.
Once voting opens, you can vote as many times as you want. Reload the page to vote again.
The first round of voting begins at 11 a.m. Pacific Time on Monday, Oct. 20, and ends on midnight on Wednesday, Oct. 22.
The top 10 dogs or cats will move on to the second round of voting, which kicks off at Thursday, Oct. 23.
Voting for Round 2 ends on Monday, Oct. 27.
A winner will be announced on Monday, Nov. 3, on SanLuisObispo.com.
Cutest cat and dog contests are taking place at more than 20 McClatchy newspapers across the country. The winners from each market will automatically be entered into a second contest to determine the Cutest Cat and Cutest Dog in the country, launching Monday, Nov. 10.
Reminder: This poll isn’t scientific — it’s just for fun!
