At last, the time has come again: LucyBalu, the label for stylish cat furniture and accessories, has today officially announced the launch of the Catmodel Contest 2024. The competition brings together the most elegant, charming and photogenic cats in Europe, giving them the chance to showcase their beauty and incomparable style on social media. For the fourth time already, LucyBalu is looking for unique, confident feline faces ready to shine as cover model for GELIEBTE KATZE magazine and as a testimonial for LucyBalu.
Only one cat can become Catmodel 2024
Taking part in the Catmodel Contest 2024 couldn't be easier. Cat owners can register their fluffy models on the official LucyBalu website (sign up here). Entries are accepted from today, and the application period closes on 18 June 2024.
Afterwards, the best candidates will be chosen on social media by the Catlover Community, giving them the chance to show off their talent in a glamorous final. For this, LucyBalu will invite the finalists to Munich on 20 and 21 July for a live photo shoot. For shy cats or furry friends for whom the journey would be too stressful, there is, as always, the option to take part in a home shoot in their own four walls.
The velvet paw that makes it to the winner's podium will be rewarded with a wealth of prizes. The winning cat will act as LucyBalu's brand ambassador for a year and will appear on the cover of Europe's most popular cat magazine, GELIEBTE KATZE. The winner will also receive products worth over €500 . All 16 finalists will receive an exclusive LucyBalu goodie bag worth over €100!
This year there are also a few new features.
What's new this year?
- The "Wild Card": the applicant who generates the most sign-ups in phase 2 secures a place in the final straight away!
- Exciting partnerships accompanying us throughout the contest
- Opening Event: on the eve of the shoot, we're holding an opening event with our long-standing collaboration partners, sponsors and the CMC jury
LucyBalu – Stylish, aesthetic, high-quality and animal-friendly
The design of LucyBalu's cat furniture and accessories stands out through its combination of maximum functionality and a cosy feel-good factor for cats, paired with a Scandinavian, minimalist and clear design language that integrates beautifully as an interior gadget in any home. As the founders themselves put it: "For us, cat furniture is a piece of interior design — after all, cats are part of the family. The furniture should primarily fulfil its purpose, namely making cats happy. At the same time, our goal is to design products that fit seamlessly into any modern living space."
