IT’S official, Melksham is a town of pet lovers! Nominations for the ‘Cutest Pet’ competition have ‘pawed’ in and now readers are being asked to cast their vote on which pet should be crowned the winner.
The Melksham News ‘Cutest Pet’ competition has been organised to celebrate National Pet Month, which aims to raise awareness of responsible pet ownership and encourage fundraising for the nation’s needy pets.
To vote for which pet you think is the cutest, take a look at all the nominations on pages 20 & 21. Then simply email the number and name of your choice to news@melkshamnews. co.uk and please include your own name and address. Only one vote is allowed per person, so choose wisely! To be eligible to vote you must live in the Melksham News distribution area. The deadline for voting is 3pm next Wednesday, 17th April.
For the winning owner, Petstown, Melksham’s own town centre pet shop, has kindly donated a prize of Petstown gift vouchers. A story and photograph of the winning pet and its owner will also be featured in Melksham News.
