The Third Annual Witless-Looking Cats Competition: The Winners!

The standards of entries for this year's Most Witless-Looking Cat competition were higher than ever. I doubt I'd have managed a decision alone without getting a headache from the sheer brilliance of the photos, so many thanks to my fellow judges Laura, Pat, Jo, Katia and Linz for their help. So many came so close, but the three moronic moggers below - in no particular order - have been decreed the most supremely idiotic. Each will win a signed copy of Under The Paw...

Milu from Juliana:

Nacho from Hollie:

---- from Lisa:

And a special mention goes to Minchie from Peggy (although the witlessness was just that bit forced to be in the running for a prize):


Those who weren't successful can read more about witless - and not-so witless cats - in Under The Paw and (published in January, but available to pre-order now!) Talk To The Tail.

  12. Is being tuxedo a predeterminant of witlessness, I wonder? ConCATs to the winners who so richly deserve their prizes.

    My Tarifa definitely should have been one of them, though.
