- 25 Funniest entries revealed in the Final Shortlist
- People’s Choice Award open for public vote
The Comedy Pet Photo Awards today publishes the very best images shortlisted this year and there are some absolute crackers to make you smile like our lead photo, titled
"Barking" (USA) by Chris Porsz / Comedy Pets.
Among the top Finalists there is a cat performing his best victory pose, a dog pretending to be Zorro, a cat about to take a free kick and dog cuddling an orangutan.
The funny pet photo competition was created by Paul Joynson-Hicks and Tom Sullam, both professional photographers to celebrate the positive and vital role that pets have in our lives and to encourage engagement around animal welfare.
