More pictures of your faithful friends are flooding in for our Precious Pets competition.

Last week kentmessenger.co.uk published the first 10 pets entered into the competition - and it remained our top-viewed story all week.

So here's a second batch of entries.

But is your pet cuter? If you think so, then make sure you enter the competition, sponsored by the Maidstone-based Newnham Court Veterinary Group.

Up for grabs is a fantastic £250 cash prize as well as a framed portrait of your pet.

The winner will also receive free pet food for a year from Newnham Court Veterinary Group.

Send in snaps of your prized pet, and we will publish a selection of the pictures in a special supplement in the Kent Messenger on Friday, June 27.

We will ask readers to vote for their favourites and then our panel of experts will choose the overall winner from the top 10.

For your chance to win, simply send your picture to the Kent Messenger, either as a high quality original colour print or emailed jpeg of at least 500k.
