22nd Set of Entries for the 2010 Coolest Pet in PoPville Contest

Ed. Note: The deadline has passed for entries, we got over 300! If you missed the deadline, save your shots for next year, sorry no exceptions. I will be posting initial entries for 1 more week or so before the semifinal rounds commence. Remember if you have a favorite please let me know. If you emailed a photo of your pet I promise all photos will be posted, patience please, there are tons (literally hundreds) of pets in PoPville!

Please don’t make up names and “vote” for your pet multiple times. If you do so, and I catch you, (which is not hard to catch) your pet will be disqualified.


Squiddy


Rowdy

“rowdy (aka ‘the professor’, left) is the biggest snuggle buddy in the world and loves to hug and spoon while napping. she has won the hearts of even the most avid cat haters. rake mcclane, detective (aka ‘the detective’, right) loves to purr and attack rowdy’s tail and grow bigger every time you look at him. this picture captures the detective’s inability to sit still in one place and rowdy’s exasperation at the goofy new thing we brought home.”


Navi

Lots more great entries after the jump.

Squiddy and Roxie


Minna


Belafonte

“Belafonte is always up for a bike ride around town!”


Moses

“From his feral Tenleytown roots and initial gender identity crisis (he was a late bloomer), Moses, the cross-eyed wonder, now makes his home in Park View where he spends his days generally being lazy and eating bugs.”


Penny

“Penny is a rescued beagle who runs (and eats grass!) like a cow. She was rescued from a puppy mill, so our theory is she never learned how to behave like a proper beagle lady.”


Becky (left) and her daughter Beyonce


Sputnik

“Here’s Sputnik lounging to the max, as usual!”


Stella

“You think it’s easy being this cute?!”


Roxy

“I <3 sunshine"
Boomer McGrath

“This little guy was found stray in Alabama, and now calls Capitol Hill East home. He has the sweetest demeanor, and we have no idea how anyone could leave him on the streets!”


Bug

“This is Bug, and despite the pout, she loves everyone and everything. She’s only sad because she’s not currently romping through Meridian Hill Park, our favorite place in D.C. Like her people, Bug is originally from Alabama, so this summer heat thing is no sweat.”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
