It’s something that we eagerly look forward to every single year. However, the public is also eligible to vote for the People’s Choice Category! So, if you have a favorite, you can cast your vote on the Comedy Pet Photography Awards website. The voting takes place between May 10 and June 2. One voter, who will be chosen at random, will win a £100 cash prize. Every single year, the contestants—veteran and amateur photographers alike—continue to surprise us with their candid shots. You never know when your pet could do something hilarious, so it really helps if you always bring your camera (or phone) with you at all times! Then, it’s just a matter of reacting quickly enough to capture all those wonderful spontaneous moments that life throws at us. We were curious how tough the judges have it and what they’ll be paying the most attention to when evaluating the shortlisted entries. “When we start collating the images and viewing them for the first time, it is really tough to decide because they are all so good,” Wood told us via email. “That is when I know it’s a special shot. As well as making us laugh and ticking the humor box, the photo has to be of good quality and something a little out of the ordinary. The ones that tell a story or seem to mimic our human behavior are always very popular,” she said. “People are so proud of their pets and rightly so and will literally do anything to get a photo entered. The commitment is off the scale,” she told us. She noted that it’s important to stay positive, as well as to remember that no matter the outcome, being shortlisted as a finalist is “amazing in itself because the competition is so fierce.” “Be sure to get all your friends, family, acquaintances, neighbors, and colleagues to vote. It’s a fun way to spend 10 mins and you never know!” For some more wholesome humor, check out Bored Panda’s coverage of the Comedy Pet Photography Awards finalists in 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020.
