The Monthly KilnPets Photo Contest

Turn your favorite pet photo into a custom piece of ceramic art! Each month, we open submissions for one week to find our next KilnPet. The winning image will be meticulously crafted into a photo-realistic ceramic tile, added to our permanent KilnPets collection, and offered for sale right here on our website.

The Prize

Our grand prize winner receives a free, custom photo-realistic ceramic KilnPet tile of their pet, complete with a display stand, plus bragging rights as a featured member of our permanent collection!

How the Contest Works

The Submission Window: Submissions are open for one week only—the 1st of the month until the 7th at midnight EST. Use the form below to enter your pet's photo.
The Semi-Finalists: On the 15th of the month, our team selects 3 semi-finalists for public vote.
The Public Vote: We post the 3 semi-finalists on our Facebook page. The community has exactly one week to vote for their favorite by liking and commenting.
The Winner: The photo with the most votes at the end of the week wins the grand prize and goes into production!

Official Rules & Image Guidelines

To give your pet the best chance of winning (and to make sure our kiln can capture their true likeness), please follow these guidelines:

Photo Quality: Images must be clear, well-lit, and sharply focused. Avoid blurry, dark, or heavily filtered photos.
Formats: The form below strictly accepts standard high-resolution graphics formats (like JPEG or PNG).
Ownership: You must be the original photographer and own the rights to the photo you are submitting.
Usage Rights: You retain ownership of your pet's photo, but by checking the permission box below, you grant us the explicit right to post the image for public voting on Facebook, and to manufacture, market, and sell the resulting ceramic tile in our KilnPets shop if your photo is selected as the winner.
