Last Wednesday afternoon we launched the 2007 World’s Coolest Dog & Cat Show, our annual free photo contest. The categories, prizes and judges are great and the entrants are better then ever. After just 5 days there are already more than half as many entrants as last year, and a third as many votes cast, the contest is open for another 30 days. So dig out your best photos and enter.

Here are some stats as of October 16th, 9:40am:
Total votes cast: 382,227
Total contest entrants: 14,602
Most popular categories: Costumes & Shades, Sleeper, Best Friends
Categories with best chance to win: Purse Dog, Daredevil, Scaredy Cat
Average votes cast per minute: 54

Voting is highly addictive, as you can tell by the number of votes cast already. Here are some examples I quickly grabbed.
