Win a trip to the DogCatemy Awards!
Want to impress America with your talented pet and win a trip to a celebrity gala in New York? Then get your video camera ready and record your dancing dog or singing cat to enter the first annual DogCatemy Amateur Petflix online contest, "My Pet's Got Talent" .
North Shore Animal League America, a non-profit, no-kill animal shelter in New York, is sponsoring the contest searching for the nation's most talented pet. Deadline to enter is Wednesday, Oct. 31 at midnight, so there is no time to waste.
Entrants should upload their 30-second to 3-minute video on YouTube and then submit their entry to North Shore Animal League America. Ten finalists will be chosen and the winner will be selected by a popular vote on the league’s Web site.
The grand prize filmmaker, a companion and the talented pooch or kitty will be flown to New York City and will walk the red carpet at the DogCatemy Awards ceremony on Nov. 29, where the winning video will be viewed along with celebrity pet films.
Come on, Roanoke. I know we have some talented pets here in the Valley. If you decide to enter, let us know so we can cheer, and vote, for our hometown favorites.
