The nation’s sleepiest pets revealed: fifteen of the cutest competition entries

Pet parents across the UK have been submitting hilarious and adorable photos of their furry friends sleeping and now the very best have been revealed.

Recent research found that over a third of Brits don’t let their pets sleep on their bed, so many need to find somewhere else to rest their head. This can lead to them dozing off in some rather bizarre places and positions.

To show just how cute and funny snoozing animals can be, online bed and mattress specialist, Bed SOS, launched a competition to find the nation’s sleepiest pets.

After receiving over 650 entries. Amy Briscoe from Southampton has been chosen as the winner and will receive a brand-new bed worth up to £400. Amy’s picture of her cat, Spartacus, sleeping awkwardly on a towel rail had the judges in stitches.

Danny Richmond, Managing Director of Bed SOS, said: “The standard of the entries was incredibly high and we faced the almost impossible task of narrowing down hundreds of adorable pictures of pets to select the winner. We felt that Amy’s entry perfectly showcases just how cute, and strange, pets can be.”

Amy passed on a comment from Spartacus, saying: “This new bed means that I can snuggle up ALL day in comfort. I won’t ever get off the new bed and I will be the happiest cat alive.”

You can see Amy’s entry below, alongside 14 of the next best entries from the competition.
