To help you with your entry and give your feline friend the best chance of being elected Purr Minister 2026, we’ve created some simple tips for capturing your photo and video.

Please send us your raw photo and video straight from your camera roll without any edits, crops or filters applied.

TIPS FOR YOUR PHOTO

  • Make sure the camera lens on your phone is clean 
  • Use natural light – if this isn’t possible, use the flash on your phone unless your cat is sensitive to bright light
  • Keep your image background tidy
  • Your feline friend should be comfortable and relaxed – don’t force them into any unnecessary positions
  • Keep your cat in the centre of the frame
  • Make sure your photo is portrait/vertical
     

TIPS FOR YOUR VIDEO

  • Keep it 10 seconds in length
  • Make sure your video is portrait/vertical
  • Film your cat at their level rather than from above
  • Keep your phone still when filming your cat
  • Avoid background noise where possible
  • Keep your cat in the centre of the frame
  • Use natural light – if this isn’t possible, use the flash on your phone unless your cat is sensitive to bright light
  • Don’t hold the camera too close to your cat
  • Avoid filming your cat in front of a window as this could affect the quality of your video
     

May the best cat win!
