The winners and runners-up of the 2024 Comedy Pet Photography Awards have been revealed.
The overall winner is Sarah Haskell with her amusing image ‘Not just for cats’, which shows Hector the dog poking his head through a cat flap. Did he make it?
“Hector saw the cat do it...so thought he would give it a try," said Sarah. "This is about as far as he got before reversing out the way he came."
So, which other cats, dogs and horses clinched prizes at this year's awards? Here, we reveal all of the category winners, plus eight highly commended images selected from the shortlist.
