"The winners of the 2023 Comedy Pet Photo Awards have been announced.
Photographer Michel Zoghzoghi has taken home the top prize for his photo of his
two rescue kittens, Max and Alex.
Zoghzoghi is a professional wildlife photographer from Beirut, Lebanon, and has
captured images of many large wild cats throughout his career. One could be
mistaken for thinking that Max and Alex are wild, too, given the sneak attack
in progress that Zoghzoghi photographed in his prize-winning image.
“Max and Alex form a lethally cute duo. I had more fun and surprises taking
photos of these two characters than during my most adventurous wildlife trips,”
Zoghzoghi says.
“As a wildlife photographer, I never really considered sending photos to a pet
competition until I discovered Comedy Pets. It’s witty, it’s fun and the photos
are hilarious. I am extremely happy and proud to have won it as all the
finalists were really outstanding and some of them made me laugh to tears. Pets
are a very, very important part of our families and should be celebrated,”
Zoghzoghi explains.
As the overall winner, Zoghzoghi has received a cash prize of £500, a new
camera bag from ThinkTank, and a custom trophy. Zoghzoghi also won the
competition’s “Cat” category."
