From a cat stuck in a wall to a Kung Fu dog, and even a headless horse, this year's Comedy Pet Photo Award finalists do not disappoint.

The Comedy Pet Photo Awards is back, and this year's lineup is guaranteed to tickle your funny bone! 

Created by professional photographers Paul Joynson-Hicks and Tom Sullam, these awards celebrate the joy our pets bring to our lives and remind us of the importance of animal welfare.

The entries have been whittled down to just 30 images, all vying for the grand prize of £500 cash and a chic camera bag from ThinkTANK. Mark your calendars because the winners of the competition will be revealed on 6 June.

Now, without further ado, here are a selection of our favourite finalists!
