Pet Calendar Contest Winner

My local newspaper holds a pet calendar contest every year. There are always nothing but cats and dogs. Sometimes there will be a horse and some rabbits. But never ever any reptiles. So, this year I entered my 2yr old Bubblegum Snow, Sylvara and she actually won. I got to take her to the newspaper office for some professional photos. She will be on the front of the calendar and whatever month I choose. I chose July. The woman that called to tell me I won and arrange for me to come to their office was very unsure of the snake. But once we got there and they all seen her actual size and how nice she was, some of the people there even ventured to touch, Sylvara.

I was surprised that the trophy they gave Sylvara was so big and heavy. I was expecting a little cheap plastic trophy.

Here is one of my attempts to take a picture of Sylvara with her trophy. It didn't turn out very well. I'll try again. Plus when I get the calendar I'll make sure to show you guys those pictures too!






Ps
Yes this picture is a little photoshopped. I blacked out the background and tried to make the last two lines of text on the trophy brighter because in the original picture you could not read them.

Oh yeah it came out around Christmas.



She got faded out in the other picture. She got the month of July. But she didn't want to hold still :P She was in the basket all coiled up but of course she had to come out and try running away.

Very cool - getting reptiles accepted as normal pet ownership can only help to promote understanding, and is probably more productive than all the letters of protest to politicians trying to legislate against them... Congratulations!

Congrats to both of you ladies.
Love the pics, love the calendars, and love the snake recognition!! Nothing but good.

A Fauna calendar would be pretty cool to. I don't think it could hurt anything, that's for sure.
