Helmets! I love 'em, you love 'em, we all love 'em. So that's why
they're going to be the theme for the next contest! All you gotta do is
send us a picture of your cat with the coolest helmet you can muster.
Get creative! The more unique the better. We've seen past helmets made
of fruit, cardboard, clay, spaghetti, cat fur, you name it. More info after the jump...
The rules are simple! Submit your photo (with you and your cats name)

. The deadline for this contest is going to be December 1st 2008. Shortly after the deadline I'll
upload our top 30 submissions and the SOMC community will vote for a
winner!
The winners will receive our brand new Wet Cat book as well as any
other book and any two shirts in our store of their choosing (our new
shirts, by the way, are being printed as we speak!).
kim and poe hi belinda: headbutts and purrs to ya!
AevalFae I dont really understand the whole helmet thing. Doesn't that hurt and/or bother that cat? How about their fur?
charitysmommy He has pineapple on his chin. I used a baby pumpkin, and kitten ended up with a bit of pumpkin on her head.
nibechsi But wouldn't a helmet hurt or bother the cat???
Ms Can Opener Hi Belinda. Great to hear from you. How is school going? How are your puddy-tats. Since you're in culinary school, did you have to make the turkey dinner? Inquiring minds want to know.
Threesenough I think you have to know your cat. Tobby would let my hubby do just about anything to him, so a helmet isn't out of the question. PT and Addie would kill someone if they tried. Oh and Hi Belinda!
kim and poe yea, just depends on your cat. they are on only long enough for a picture in most cases. no abuse anywhere. no one on this site would honestly put their kitties in harms way. although a "corporal" cuddle is sometimes necessary ;)
mayathecat Yay for corporal cuddling heehee :) Maya would never let me make her wear anything, so I don't even try.
Ruby Tuesday Me too, I have one cat that would not stand a helmet at all.. where as the other cat would try to help me put it on her...they all just have different personalities. And again, its just long enough to get a photo :)
Ms Can Opener I'm all for corporal cuddling as well. I have a kitty that likes to stand between me and the computer screen with his backside in my face. I pet the hips for awhile, then pick him up for CC. He gives me about 15 seconds or cuddle, then splits.
Ms Can Opener I admit to being a cranky old ccl, but we've really been robbed. Since Prince Albert, we've had two commercials which in my mind don't really count as new kitties. While Belinda did pop in to say hi and that was a lovely surprise, Mario, Jason and Brent are missing in action. What shall we do?
Meohmy We shall hold our breath until we get new kitties.....
JasonS Hey folks...just a quick note that Mario drove from Portland back to Fresno to be with us (family) for the holiday and should be back to Portland tonight. Kitties coming soon!.
catena thanks for sending this ray of hope into our desparation.
catamist Meohmy, start breathing again before you turn blue. MsCO, uncrank thouself :) YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAA JASON!!!! Thank you, dearheart, for that update!!!!
Rhiyaya Hmmm, so Belinda is in culinary school? I have a good friend that just started culinary school in Portland... I wonder if it's the same school!?
Ms Can Opener @Rhiyaya - Although Portland is bigger than my burg, it's not huge. It probably is the same school. Hook up with her name and ask her. I think Belinda should send us all cookies.
PieKitty I think the turkey must have eaten Mario instead, meh!
Vanessa Still no contest posting, eh? I can't believe there are cats that allow their owners to put anything on their heads...my cat would freak if I tried to put a piece of single ply tissue on his head. no way....
