Your cat could be the monthly pinup, or the cover, of Feline Folks’ 2009 calendar, which benefits low-cost spay and neuter for homeless cats. Winners get their photo published with their name, plus a free calendar.

By Aug. 31, send a photo that shows only a cat (or cats) - no dogs, no people and no text - to info@felinefolks.org. It must be a digital file, 300 dpi, 8 by 11 inches, 95 percent quality jpeg and less than 32 MB. People can enter more than once, and should include their cat’s name, if it’s a pet, and contact information.
