Hamster of the Month - May 2011 - POLL NOW ADDED

[souffle]

It's a new month so we have to choose the 'Hamster of the Month' for next month. The winning hamster will appear on the front page of the forum so when someone comes on to the forum they will see the picture. It will also be made into a Calendar pic for May and posted for anyone to print out.
In entering the competition you give permission for you picture to be used in these ways.

So it could be YOUR hamster who becomes famous.

1. This competition is for the May Hamster of the month.

2. You may enter 1 picture and this should be accompanied by a few lines telling us a little about you hamster and why it should be chosen.

3. The picture should be clear and as charming as possible

4. The picture must be of a hamster of any species and it must belong to you or your family. It may be with you now or have passed to the bridge.

5. Closing date for entries is Sunday 24th April.

6. The voting will be posted and the new pic will be displayed in May. It will also be made in a printable calendar.

7. Please try and post a new photograph that you have not entered in a previous competition.

8. It may be themed if you wish and May has May day, Spring and not a lot else!

Please do not post any comments on this thread and only post entries. PM me with any queries. If you cannot post pics then e mail me the pic and I will post it on your behalf.
I have noticed that some of the pictures posted are very large. These pictures do not do your entry justice as people will not scroll across the page to view the whole image, it stretches the forum and also it can pixelate and make your picture less clear. Please resize your pictures so that they just fit across the forum. Around 600pixels width is a good size. Also you should ensure your picture is very clear and in focus as a blurry picture will not attract votes. Thanks.

Good luck everyone and can't wait to see your pics

I would like to enter Maisie-Moo as hamster of the month for May as she passed away tonight, and it would be lovely to look at her lovely face everytime I log on during May.
She was my gorgeous little mischief maker.

Here is Sen, in the cutest photo I have of her. Eating her morning porridge and holding on to the spoon with her cute little "hands".
Sen would like to be HotM because her mummy has taken sooo many photos of her that she'd like one of them to have achieved something - so that all this posing is worth it!

Noodles keep trying! Even if she does not get all the votes she likes the fact that you are interested in her silly antics! She is ommnommnomming baby rice pudding here that her Daddy is feeding her. She misses her Daddy as he is away working for 6 weeks in Glasgow.

I'd like to enter Peanut Fluff AKA peanutty, peanuttacle, the Fluffinator! I love him to pieces and he was an absolute godsend when we lost Bo and Poppet and now he's getting on a bit it would be nice if he won.

Popcorn would love to be hamster of the month; he doesn't often pose for a photo, but decided this once try to use his charms to convince you all - "look into my cute little hamster eyes and vote for meeeee"

Chewy would like to apologise for yet another tongue picture, but he is pretty vain and proud of himself. He would like to win because he enjoys having a big head.



PS. The pictures this month are fab. Sorry Chew is too lazy to do a themed one, or anything!

MR Nibbles would like to be hamster of the month for may because it will be his one year anniversary of being adopted by his mommy!!
