Let's face it. Some of us are just a tad obsessed with our pets. I'm not naming names or anything...
Above: Sophie our Golden mut getting some love from Dickens, our huge Maine Coon cat.
This year’s theme, Getting
Pet-ty inspired hundreds of you to depict your beloved furry or feathered friend
with fabric, thread, and heaps of love. From the countless entries
received, the decision to winnow the lot down to 13 was very difficult. We saw
lizards, llamas, parrots, horses, mice, dogs, cats, iguanas, you name it.
