Congratulations to our superstars with the most UNIQUE comments: Banjo, Birdy, Carlos, Louie and Topper!  You have had additional FREE votes added to your calendar totals.  We look forward to seeing who will be named Alexandria’s Animal Idol tonight at 8 p.m.!

 

We’re so close to naming Alexandria’s Animal Idol, but before we do, we’re giving our contestants one final challenge to show they have what it takes to be our 2020 Animal of the Year! You can help your favorite pet rise to the top of the leaderboard by commenting on this post to tell us why your pet of choice deserves to be our animal all-star (please make sure to mention their name in your post). The five animals with the most unique comments at noon on June 30 will be awarded extra votes.  Please note if entrants receive multiple comments from one individual, they will only be counted once. Entrants below are listed in alphabetical order.

If you’d like to do even more to help animals in need, you can head over to our contest page and vote there! Every vote equals a dollar to help homeless, injured and sick animals be ready to meet their future families, and we couldn’t do what we do without the support of our community. Make your vote HERE.
