Hamster of the month - February 2012 - POLL NOW ADDED

souffle · 01-01-2012, 01:26 PM

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 February and posted for anyone to print out.
In entering the competition you give permission for you picture to be used in these ways.
PLEASE TRY AND RESIZE PHOTOS AS SOME ARE HUGE AND ARE STRETCHING THE FORUM.

So it could be YOUR hamster who becomes famous.

1. This competition is for the February 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 21st January

6. The voting will be posted and the new pic will be displayed in February. 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 February has Valentines Day and winter!

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

This month the vote will be public.

Dommy Bob the Chinese is getting to be an old man now but he is still a charming and cuddly little gentleham so I thought I'd enter him this month

I'm gunna give it another shot but with Bubble this month

So this photo was taken about 2 months ago. She had just been put back in her cage after having come out of hibernation and given me quite a scare! When she woke up, I was warming her up in my hand and panicking a little when suddenly she bit me! The little monster. Anyywaaay, I have had Bubble the longest of my hammies so she is pretty special to me. I hope you'll vote for her ^^

HOW BEAUTIFUL IS THAT FACE?! XD

Shiloh recently came a very close second in HOTM so she would like to try and go one better this time. She's a poser as you can see. Shy calls this "Pretty in Pink". Pink's kinda apt for Valentines Day isn't it?

For hamster of the month I am entering Buttons who passed just before christmas, despite being with me a short time she really was a adorable cheeky affectionate girl who gave me alot of love and who I miss every single day, I really think she was beautiful.
Its just a shame the rose wasnt red....

I want to enter in gizmo even though hes playing at the bridge. This is one of my favourite photos i took of him last January the week after i got him. Brought him home on the 8th jan so due to this leading up the week to a year i would of had him i thought it would be nice to enter the little guy considering its for February but my birthday is then so it works out somewhat ha!

As it was our christmas/new year dinner with mum today, it was the one day i was looking forward to giving the boys some broccoli but sadly he couldnt join us but no worries, im sure he'll be happy (well maybe) that i gave his to my cousin hamster, Harry who i'm watching over the weekend

Bear doesn't really "do" fluffy but he went in his pink ball just for valentines and is trying his best to give cute eyes.
