Cats (and their stories) Needed For Cat Calendar 2019 !! (Yes...2019!)

Fellow Tabby Cat, Barn Cat Petunia seeks help from cats around the world!  Her human, artist,
Alex Hubbell has obsessively painted her throughout the year. It’s time to broaden horizons for both animal and artist. Petunia’s calling all cat lovers to share photos and stories for the 2019 calendar.

TWELVE OF THE BEST CAT STORIES WILL BE CHOSEN from all submissions. Alex will create an original artwork based on the winning kitties for each month in 2019. To get involved and submit your story visit us at on 



"My cat, Petunia, may be the star in this year's calendar, but next year, I want to paint cats from around the world, and I need your help. Either you love cats, or you know someone who does, and you have a story to tell.  


So please, send me your cats, because I need 12 FRESH felines to be featured in next year’s edition.  If you send me a photo and a quick story with your backer survey, I will be painting a selection of your cats throughout this year.  You could be part of a Commissioned Cat Calendar for 2019!  So, please, join me! I can’t wait to see what stories you have to share."
