Our readers photos of their prize animals for International Pets Day
WE asked our readers to send in their top photographs of their prize animals to celebrate International Pets Day and we have been amazed by the response.
We were inundated with entries both on social media and people posting their dogs and cats to the website.
Here are a selection of them. Keep your eyes peeled for more throughout the day..
Carole Jacoby, 59, took this shot of Bobby Alan from Samlesbury, age 7
Kerryn Yarwood from Darwen submitted this shot of Simba (right) and Nala (left) - they are brother and sister from the same litter.
