GAZETTE readers have been sharing their silliest photos of their pets.
To coincide with the announcement of the finalists of the Comedy Pet Photography Awards, we asked our readers to share their funniest photos of their pets on Facebook.
We received scores of photos of cats, dogs and other furry friends in the most bizarre of circumstances, some particular highlights include a cat stuck in a coat hanger and a dog poking its tongue out at the camera.
The gallery above shows 16 of the silliest photos.
