seems like Contacts does not inflect to Contact as singular form
have you overridden the inflections with custom settings? maybe you
put "Contact=>Contact" in there
otherwise I don't know whats wrong. your code looks good.
taking a closer look..
for some reason $this->Contact does not exist
this has nothing to do with validation. the model simply isn't loaded.
try to debug $this->Contact
at what point it is missing
you could manually load it:
$this->Contact = ClassRegistry::init('Contact')
but I would suggest you try to find the source for this problem.
maybe the file name of your model is incorrect? or the location
somewhere cake can't find it?
