You guys! It's time to vote! Warm up your ballot fingers and make your voice count in this Fall's most riveting election: Who will be the next Berkley Illustration animal in a suit?
Leave a comment after this post declaring the animal (just one, please) you need to see in a suit . The first round of votes will close October 28th (Tuesday). Then we'll have a vote-off of the top contenders and the winner will be available to purchase in early November. It's time to think about that holiday gift giving so you can even vote for your secret santa's favorite animal if you like.
Please, no specific dog/cat breeds. We're still sticking to that rule lest every dog in the universe gets mentioned. And guess what? We mega-love pets so you can't say we're being snotty.
BONUS! NEW! We're going to give away an 8x10" print at random to one of you snazzy voters. You can pick the winning animal or you can pick one of the oldies. We'll put all the voters' names in a hat (or maybe a bowl) and draw a winner when all the voting rounds are done. Make sure we have your email address when you vote!
May the best animal win!
Mr. and Mrs. Skunk! I totally agree on that!!

I'm all for Sloth- both the animal and the deadly sin.
If the sloth is somehow unable to perform his duties, however, I vote a meercat to take over.
Sloth/meercat 08!

grizzly bear!

someone else actually said manatee! that was my first thought. gosh. okay, i really like the gorilla idea too. you do seem to have a simian void. marmosets might suffice, but gorillas are mighty fine. have you done elephants? they're terribly handsome. my favorite you've already done, by far, is the giraffe. hands down.
