Who is the cutest cat in Kentucky? Cast your vote now in our final championship round!
This is it, the showdown between two finalists in our subscriber poll to crown the cutest cat in Kentucky.
Over the last several weeks, we’ve asked our subscribers to help us find the most adorable cat in the commonwealth.
In our initial call-out, we solicited submissions from our readers and got more than 100 entries. Several rounds of voting and eliminations have all led to this momen, when our subscribers will determine Kentucky’s reigning champion.
Last week, we asked our subscribers to narrow the field to a final two competitors. A total of 1,000 participants voted in last week’s poll. Here’s a breakdown of the results for the final four:
- Millie - 306 votes
- Lily - 264 votes
- Zsu Zsu - 220 votes
- Daffy - 210 votes
Our finalists this week are Millie, a 1-year-old orange tabby described as having a heart of gold, and Lily, a contemplative, 14-year-old domestic longhair. In this final round, we’re asking our subscribers to vote for the most adorable among the two, as difficult as the decision may be. The winner between these two will be featured in a Herald-Leader article.
Subscribers may vote as many times as they like before the poll closes at noon Friday, Nov. 1. After that, no additional votes will be tallied. As a reminder, this poll isn’t scientific, and is just for fun.
Before you vote in the poll, here’s a closer look at each of the two finalists to help you decide.
Lily
Fourteen-year-old Lily, a gray and white domestic longhair cat, lives in Lexington. According her owner, Lily enjoys sitting outside to watch the squirrels and birds. She prefers to drink her water directly from the faucet and is a fan of naps.
Millie
This 1-year-old rescue named Millie is described as an excellent mom by her owner. The orange tabby once nursed several kittens that were not her own. Millie lives in Lexington.
