YOU sent us hundreds of pictures of your pets for our Gwent’s Prettiest Pet competition - from cats and dogs, to rabbits and lizards.

We featured submitted entries which were sent from across the region in a special supplement last week, and these can also be viewed here.

And now you can vote for the winner of the reader vote, from a shortlist of five entries.

Voting closed at midnight on August 24.

The Argus has teamed up with artist Christopher Langley to give away special artwork created from a photograph.

Mr Langley has chosen one winning pet to receive one of his pet portraits, worth £170, while the other winner will be decided by the public vote.

They will both receive a bespoke print on canvas created by Mr Langley, who is one of the artists in residence at the Celtic Manor Resort.

The print, on A2 canvas, will be created from a digital painting of the winning pets and will come with a signed certificate of authentication.
