The Express & Star is launching a new competition, inviting pet owners to submit their favourite picture of their pet to be in with a chance of walking away with up to £500 in prize money.
We have long been a nation of pet lovers and everyone knows that animals really do make a real difference to our lives.
To celebrate our special bond with our pets we want to see your best photos – or Pawtraits – of the animals that are part of your family.
They can be easily uploaded online and all pets are welcome – no matter how small, furry or funny!
Photos of your pets will feature in a supplement in the Express & Star on Wednesday, June 5.
From there you will have the opportunity to vote for the pet that you think has the perfect portrait by sending in voting tokens, which will be printed in the Express & Star daily from Wednesday, June 5 until Saturday, June 22.
The overall winner of the competition will secure the coveted title of the Express & Star’s most popular Pawtrait Pet of the year as well as £500 in prize money.
So, get your cameras at the ready and get snapping!
Rob Kelly, head of circulation, said: “The Express & Star is launching a fantastic new competition called Pawtrait Pets focusing on our readers’ love of pets. We want to see your favourite photograph of your pet.
“This is the first time we have carried out a pet competition and we know that our readers will love to see all these fantastic photos which will appear in a special supplement in the Express & Star on Wednesday, June 5. We are expecting a great response from this competition and cash prizes will be up for grabs for the first, second and third placed pets, after readers have voted for their favourite.
“Please read the terms and conditions of the competition and ensure that the photo you send in is of good quality so it reproduces well within the supplement.”
