Pet Portraits: Sophisticated Suzi takes the crown for Sutherland

At 15 years old, this week’s Pet Portraits winner has certainly earned the title of purr-incess.

Glamour puss Suzi has stolen the crown from our previous canine champions to demonstrate that the top dog can also be a top cat.

We’re sure that Suzi and her owners, Kathryn and William Mackay from Baligill in Sutherland, will spend their £50 Pets At Home gift card well – especially with their Border collie Charlie also making an appearance!

And if you would think your pet is among the cutest companions in the north and north-east, why not send in a picture? We’re sure they’d fit in our gallery paw-fectly.

Pet Portraits of the week

Border collie Charlie stands guard at Fort George, during an outing with Kathryn and William who he lives with in Sutherland.

Who’s the queen of the castle? Lilly and Lolly debate the point at the home they share with Rachel Morrison, of Inverness.

Oh yes you are so handsome! Sam the Labrador enjoys the sun at Crathes, near where he lives with Andria McCartan.

Cooper and Angus, from Banchory, love a trip to Granny and Grandad (John and Irene) at Springfield Road, Aberdeen, because they get to drink from the fountain in the garden – although there is water inside for them. What a contrary pair!

Guess where I am? Tails says it’s Ben Vorlich! Springer spaniel Tye looks like he’s landed on his feet in his new home. The three-and-a-half-year-old, who has lived with Elaine MacGIllivray in Scone since February, loves this walk at Kinnoull Hill, looking west over Perth.

Nine-year-old Jack Russell Baxter, who lives at Craigellachie with Eddie and Morag, looks very dapper as he waits for the train at Dailuaine Halt on the Speyside Way.

Hold that pose Charlie! This young lad is 18 months old and is enjoying life from the comfort of his armchair in Aberdeen where he lives with Ronnie and Carol Gordon.

Warmest seat in the house goes to cheeky pair Ruby and Lolly who live with Rachel Morrison in Inverness.

What’s the weather like up there? Best pals Fly and Binx in Brechin where they live with Becky Bruce.

Getting in the mood for Christmas is two-year-old Button who lives in Aberdeen with the Taylor family. We hope Santa is good to you!

One-year-old German shepherd dog Bo takes growing up very seriously. This handsome young pup lives with David Cameron in Aberdeen.

If you would like to see your pet in the Your Life supplement, please send your high-resolution (good-quality) photographs to pets@dctmedia.co.uk

Please ensure you tell us your pet’s name, your own name and address, and where the picture was taken. There may be a short delay before it appears. Photos must be hi-res to print.

Each week, we will select a winning photograph and the lucky owner will receive a £50 Pets At Home gift card. At a time where costs are increasing, we’d like to make life a little easier for our readers. You can spend the voucher on essentials such as food and bedding, or just spoil your furry friend with a new toy or some tasty treats.
