THIS year will never be forgotten due to the coronavirus pandemic forcing the country into lockdown, but it has been an enjoyable period for our pets.

They have been spoilt, with them getting more treats and time with their owners than ever before.

Some have headed into the garden to jump on a hammock or wear a hat, while others have decided to remain indoors to let out their cheeky side.

We would love to see more snaps of your beloved pets. If you would like to see your pet appearing in our pages, simply complete our online form.
