Every pet has that moment when he or she does something unintentional that is absolutely hilarious. We want you to share those moments.

TAMPA BAY, FL – Every pet owner has a collection of photos capturing those moments when your pet unintentionally does something hilarious then looks at you with perked ears and a puzzled tilt of the head as you start laughing.

Patch is offering readers a chance to share those amusing antics with the community. Download those funny photos from your cell phone and computer and email them to editor D'Ann White at dann.white@patch.com. You will be eligible for a chance to win a $250 Amazon gift card.

At the end of the contest on Sept. 30. we'll post the photos of your cheeky chihuahua, grumpy bulldog or goofy cat on St. Pete Patch and ask readers to vote on their favorite. The person submitting the photo that gets the most votes on our five participating Patch sites (Bradenton, Tampa, St. Pete, Clearwater and Sarasota) will win the Amazon gift card.
