Children can win big
Young pet lovers are being encouraged to get creative.
Pets at Home, in Paisley’s Linwood Road, is inviting crafty people to let their imagination run wild by drawing, or writing, a story that illustrates what they would look like if they were an animal.
The five most creative animal alter egos from across the UK will be awarded with a bundle of pet goodies and treats, as well as a personal photo shoot at their local Pets at Home store.
The competition is part of Pets at Home’s annual My Pet Pals campaign which aims to educate children on animal welfare and responsible pet ownership.
Stewart Gordon, store manager at Pets at Home, in Linwood Road, said:“Children can have an incredible bond with their pets and love spending time together – but has your child ever wondered what they would look like if they were an animal?
“We want kids to channel their animal alter egos and get inventive.
“Would they be a football mad dog with rainbow fur and a top hat?
“Or a cool cat with roller skates and a penchant for pancakes? “The sillier and more imaginative the better. “We hope that young animal fans from the local area get involved, and we wish everyone the best of luck.”

The closing date for nominations is July 3 at noon.
