Disclaimer: The Anipal Academy Awards are just for fun. Do not feel slighted if you are not nominated or recognized, or if you don't win an award. All anipals are important members of our community and every one of you are appreciated for the crazy animal lovers that you are! We wish we could nominate you all.

*Nomination note: in order for an anipal's nomination to qualify they must receive more than one nomination and be known to at least one committee member. In the event of a tie the committee will vote to break the tie and choose one winner* 

 Please just have fun and enjoy the Awards!

If you know someone Over The Rainbow Bridge, it's time to Honor them

We want to give some insight behind the concept of the Rainbow Bridge Polls! These are Open Poll only, meaning anipals are free to submit ANYONE AT RAINBOW BRIDGE for nomination instead of voting for the committee selections. We'd also like to invite anipals and their hoomans to send us the following info via email:

- note the submission is for the rainbow bridge in the email title

- twitter name of the anipal (if NOT on Twitter, please list a Tweeter to contact about them if necessary. )
- photo(s) of the anipal and the reason you love the photo.NOTE: You may send photos to honour ANY RB pals. The photos you submit do not have to be connected to a vote they can just be to commemorate someone you love. You do not need to send in a photo for your vote to count however if you have one that's pawfect!

Please send the above info to the Anipal Academy Awards Executive Director: Autumnthedoxie@gmail.com

We will be making up a separate page for all the Rainbow Bridge nominees so we may all enjoy and celebrate each other. *UPDATE* Here is the link for the Rainbow Bridge page: http://anipalawardsotrb.blogspot.com/

Thank you much!

Info on Voting!

The hard-working nomination committees have completed their reports and we are getting the voting site set up. In just a few short days, you will be able to go vote in all 13 catagories!!!
It is now up to you. we've come up with quality nominees, but there are so many, that if you feel we missed one, you can also do a write-in vote.
Three of the Catagories are ANIPAL CHOICE with no nominees, but a pure open vote.
Voting will continue probably into early June, but we ask that each of you vote just ONCE per catagory. Let's keep it honest and fair.
And on that Note: Cheeto from @RosieAndCheeto has a message for you voters:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

PLEASE DO THE FOLLOWING BEFORE YOU BEGIN VOTING:

1. Put yer right paw on yer favorite toy

2. Put yer left paw as high up in the air as possible

3. Repeat outloud aftur me: "I do solomly swear as a fellow anipal TO ONLY VOTE ONCE in each category"

Penalty fur violating these rules and voting more than once in each categorie will result in the following:

Thank you very much fur yer trust and cooperation. @RosieAndCheeto.

So, as you can see, the next step is up to you anipals. We appreciate your participation, and really look forward to the Glamourous Gala Ceremony that will be held in JULY followed by a huge AfterPawty.
