San Diego House Rabbit Society Shelter Bunnies Calendar Contest: How Voting Works & How to Win

What is the San Diego House Rabbit Society shelter bunnies calendar contest?

This is a public photo contest run by the San Diego House Rabbit Society, a rabbit rescue based in San Diego, California. Entrants submit photos of shelter bunnies, and the public votes on the entries on the contest page. The contest page is hosted on the GoGo Photo Contest site, and the society runs it as a fundraiser.

The contest page describes prizes and a chance for chosen photos to be featured in the calendar. The society is the organizer, and the vote is presented as a public choice on the page rather than a decision by judges. The contest is listed as a best-of business-style entry in the poll details, but its subject is a rescue charity.

Which editions of this rabbit calendar contest are confirmed?

Three editions are confirmed for this contest, in 2023, 2025 and 2026. The contest page names the next calendar the entries feed. The program is listed as annual, and the confirmed years show a pattern of repeat contests, although 2024 is absent from the details reviewed here.

The details do not print opening or closing days for each cycle, so readers cannot pin the window from this guide alone. The contest page shows its status as ended, which means the current window is closed on that page.

No category breakdown appears in the contest details, and no second voting stage is described. Day-level windows are missing from the contest details, so confirm on the live ballot each cycle.

How does a supporter vote in this calendar contest today?

A supporter opens the contest page, browses the rabbit photos on the entries page, and casts a vote on the entries they want to back. Each entry is a single photo, so a voter chooses the picture rather than a name or a school. The page is designed as a photo contest, which means the picture itself is the nominee.

The mechanic is a public vote with no judging step described on the page. Supporters who want to back a particular rabbit should find the entry on the entries page before voting, because the entries are not grouped by shelter or by bunny name in the details reviewed here.

How does this contest sit beside the other California calendar and best-of votes?

California has several best-of ballots and calendar contests, and this one stands out because its subject is a rabbit rescue. The Best of Central Valley Business, the Best of Marin, the Best of Orange County, the Best of San Diego and Best Restaurants and the Best of Silicon Valley are all business or restaurant awards from different markets. None of them is a calendar photo vote for a rescue.

The 2024 GGBR Calendar Contest is the closest comparison, because it is also a calendar photo contest. Readers comparing the two should look at the organizer, the subject and the years, since the rabbit calendar is run by a San Diego charity.

See the Best of San Diego and Best Restaurants for a local best-of comparison and the 2024 GGBR Calendar Contest for another calendar vote.

How can supporters help an entry get more votes legally?

Supporters can help an entry by sharing the contest link with friends, rabbit owners and rescue communities who follow the society. A short message that names the entry and links to the contest page works better than a general request, because voters must find the right photo. Sharing through rescue and pet-owner groups is the most direct form of support for a public photo vote like this one.

The contest details do not describe a vote limit, an account rule or an eligibility test, so each person should cast only a personal vote. The organizer can remove votes that come from scripts or repeated automated submissions, which makes personal sharing the safer approach.

A broader checklist for public votes appears in the guide to getting more votes online, which covers timing and clear messages. For the general paid market, see the award vote overview.
