VOTES have been pouring in to choose the winner of News Shopper’s cute pets photo competition.

Last month we launched the search for the most picture-perfect pet in south-east London and north Kent.

We were inundated with entries, with photos of 1,069 furry, feathered and scaly creatures being submitted.

A vote to decide the winner of the contest began this week and continues until November 28.

If you want to help choose the creature great or small which should win go to the competition via www.newsshopper.co.uk/cutepets and cast a vote or votes for your favourite pictures.

You’ll be spoilt for choice as there is a massive array of different animals to see including cats, dogs, reptiles, birds and even horses.

At the end of the competition the picture with the most votes will be the winner and the owner of the animal will win a prize of £50 to treat him or herself yourself to something nice or perhaps pamper their winning pet.

We will also publish a selection of the most popular photos in our newspapers.
