Pets hold special places in our hearts as companions and members of the family - and it's that time of year again where you can celebrate and share your bundle of joy with the community.
Rotorua's Addiction Pet Food Pet of the Year 2020 competition is here.
The winner willtake home a pet food hamper worth over $300 supplied by Addiction Pet Foods.
Last year's Rotorua Pet of the Year was a bold feline named Rusty who was dubbed the "king of the family".
Rusty's proud owner Kruti Desai said Rusty was known as "the king of family" because he ate with the family at the dining table, opened doors on his own and always had his toys scattered around the house.
"He always knows when it is a family mealtime and will jump up and take his seat at the head of the table."
The family got Rusty from the SPCA.
