Winning images will be used to help raise funds for iCatCare.

International Cat Care (iCatCare) has launched its annual photography competition to document the six life stages of cats.

From kitten through to super senior, judges are on the lookout for images that document behaviour not necessarily associated with a particular life stage – such as a super senior playing with toys. However, photographs are by no means limited to this

The competition is open to amateur and professional photographers, and the 12 winning images will be used on charity merchandise to raise funds for ICatCare. The overall winner will also receive a cash prize of £500.
