The "Comedy Pet Photo Award" stands for one thing above all: humor, laughter, having fun.
Lean back and just enjoy the moment.
The animal photo competition was initiated by the two professional photographers Paul Joynson-Hicks and Tom Sullam.
With the aim of raising awareness of animal welfare.
Like last year, there is a partnership with Animals Friends Pet Insurance to donate proceeds of over £35,000 (EUR 41,000) to various deserving animal welfare organisations.
Now the 30 finalists are fighting for victory.
The winner will be announced on September 13th.
Voting is open until August 22 at www.comedypetphoto.com.
We introduce you to 14 finalists.
Can't get enough?
You can read the winners from 2021 here.
And if you're still in the mood for wildlife, then we can supply supplies for that too.
