What a contest! This one was close all day. It was Celia one minute and Izzy the next. But at 11:57pm the final vote was cast and Celia came through with a huge upset garnering 27% of the vote versus Izzy’s 25%. I’d like to thank all who submitted entries and apologize to those who submitted after the deadline. There’s always next year!
As for Celia, I am very proud that she will be representing PoPville as Coolest pet. I can think of no other pet to better represent us. For Celia is scrappy and three legged but has a lot of heart. We, too, may not be the prettiest folks in town but damn it we’re scrappy and we’ve got heart in PoPville.
Congratulations to Celia, all the finalists and all the great entries.
