Wow! Who would have guessed we had so many adorable furbabies living right here on the North Shore? We were blown away by the number of amazing entries we had in our Love Your Pet competition, we couldn’t possibly choose. So, we handed it over to you to vote… and we have our winners! So scroll down to check out the winners!
Thanks to all our fur (and other pets!) families who sent in their adorably sweet, cheeky and downright heart-melting photos of their beloved pets. The quality of entries was incredible, so we handed it over to the public and had thousands of votes roll in. So, without further ado… let’s congratulate the winners!
Thanks to Turramurra Veterinary Hospital for loving our pets as much as we love them, and for making this Love Your Pet competition possible!

Christina Geary & the sleeping baby & cat
‘This is my human son, Alex and my fur son, Rastus, who are inseparable best friends. Rastus used to sit on my belly and purr when Alex was in utero. I also went into labour with Alex while trying to pick a very upset Rastus up off the floor one evening. They now fight for mum’s lap space and chase each other around the house since Alex has learned how to crawl.
My cats bring so much warmth and love to the household. Being greeted with meows at the door, headbutts while working on the computer and scruffles on the lounge at the end of a big day make the all the small moments more magical.’
Christine has won 2nd Prize ($300), which includes:
- Complimentary veterinary consultation at Turramurra Veterinary Hospital
- Medium bag of Hills food, pet shampoo & treats
3rd Prize: Camille Jamon, Oreo & the sleeping baby
Camille Jamon, Oreo & the sleeping baby
‘This photo will always be special to our family. This is when our fur baby Oreo (a toy Cavoodle) met his baby sister for the very first time. It was love at first sight. He wanted to lick her all over yet he is so gentle with her. His little sister is now 1 year old and their bond is stronger than ever. He follows her everywhere. They play fetch, hide and seek and he loves waiting for her to share her bikkies with him. Their relationship is so beautiful to watch.
Oreo is our family’s fur baby. His love and warmth to every member of the family brings everyone joy. He loves being around us and he is always the first one to welcome a family member who comes home from work or school. He is also our home’s head of security 😀 He is protective of our home and his human siblings. He is a blessing to our family.’
Camille has won 3rd Prize ($150), which includes:
- Complimentary veterinary consultation at Turramurra Veterinary Hospital
- Small bag of Hills food, pet shampoo & treats
