Be a Whisker Gifters Blog Guest Columnist

An Open Call for Submissions

Dear Canine and Feline Friends,

Baron and I are holding an open call for Guest Columnist submissions for the Whisker Gifters Blog. We’d love to publish information about an upcoming benefit, a “thank you” letter to your foster family, your exposè on the illegal bully stick trade, an analysis of the socio-economic impact of addiction to single source protein treats or any other topic of interest to you.

At this very moment, one hamster, three people, five dogs, eight cats, nine fish and several frogs* are reading the latest installment of the Whisker Gifters Blog. With that kind of circulation, your article will go viral in no time.

Here are the guidelines for your submission:

1. Brevity is good. Four to five paragraphs tops.
2. Cleanliness is better. You can express an opinion, but don’t say mean things or use icky language.
3. Information is best. Our readers are always looking to increase their knowledge on a variety of topics.
4. Include an email address, website and/or phone number so hamsters, people, dogs, cats, fish and frogs can contact you if you’d like them to.
5. Email your submission (put the text right in the email, not in a separate document), a photo (no larger than 72 dpi) and a one-line description of yourself or your organization (i.e., “My name is Fluffy G. I’m from Dallas, TX and my hobbies include grooming myself, knocking lamps through windows while chasing bugs and watching “Real Housewives of New Jersey”) to jester@whiskergifters.com.
   

Guest Columnist submissions will be accepted on an ongoing basis, so there's no deadline. But the sooner you submit an article, the sooner we can publish it. If you haven’t already written something, get started!

Sincerely,
Baron, Director of Dog Stuff
Jester, Director of Cat Stuff

The legal beagle wants you to know that once submitted, all articles become the property of Whisker Gifters. Whisker Gifters reserves the right to not publish any article we feel is not in keeping with our standards. We also reserve the right to edit a submission for space. That’s about it. If they think of anything else, they’ll let you know.
