Everyone thinks they have the most beautiful pet.
Competition website, www.mymostbeautiful.com, recently announced the launch of its latest competition.
The latest competition is titled My Most Beautiful Pet and entries are now open.
The winning pet picture will take home a grand prize of R50 000.
There are also cash prizes for the rest of the top 10, ranging from R15 000 to R1 000. There are also prizes for a few lucky voters.
My Most Beautiful Pet celebrates all of South Africa’s fur babies by donating a portion of its profits to TEARS, a pro-life, non-profit organisation based in Cape Town.
The organisation rescues and rehomes lost, abandoned and abused animals, as well providing free sterilisations and primary medical care to animals in underprivileged communities.
Around 300 animals are cared for daily at the shelter, from veterinary care to providing food.
Joining in the search for this year’s My Most Beautiful Pet are two celebrity judges, former Miss SA finalist Vanessa Haywood – Sandes, who is an avid animal lover, and animal-activist and singer, Louise Carver, who have come on board to assist with the difficult task of crowning the winning pet “the most beautiful”.
Those who want to enter simple need to create a profile on www.mymostbeautiful.com, upload your pet pics and get your friends and family voting via sms.
Entries and voting close on September 9 and the winners will be announced on September 16.
