We are delighted to announce the 12 winning images of the International Cat Care 2016 Cat Naps photography competition!
The competition ran for six weeks from the start of April and attracted a record number of entries, with a total of 3,400 pictures submitted by photographers from 51 different countries! This is easily the largest number of entries the charity has ever received in the four years that the competition has been running.
This year, together with Your Cat magazine, we were looking for images of cats napping, something cats certainly like to do! We received so many fantastic entries including cats sleeping up trees, in flowerpots and even one of a cat napping on the back of a horse! The judges from iCatCare and Your Cat magazine had the privileged but difficult task of whittling the entries down to a shortlist of just 40, from which the 12 winners were selected.
Congratulations go to Viv Harding, Nic Howett, Crystal Moreno, Matthew Wong, Becky Wong, Patrycja Kuczynska, Johanna Vaurio-Teräväinen, Alexis-Kimonas Kokkinaris, Caroline Hooper, Phil Croucher, Christine Lam Ying Loi and Paul Brown – our winners!
The twelve winners will each receive £100 and a selection of iCatCare merchandise. All of the winners were also invited to the iCatCare Annual Awards which were held in London on 15 July.
Angel: My bowl and my blanket…Right?!?
OMG these kitties are adorable! I want them all :). Congrats to all the winners.
Check out these awesome winning cat photographs. Monkey and I are sure glad there is a black cat amongst them!
Do two identical cat photos exist in the universe? I think not!
