3. Submit your photos or videos between April 11 (National Pet Day) and April 30 (National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day).

Our categories are: Cutest Dog, Cutest Cat, Best Rescue, Best Senior, Best Pet & Owner Look-a-Like, Most Mischievous, Best Work From Home, Best Costume and Best "Olympian Moment."

4. Vote on your favorites from May 2-May 22.
