A picture paints a thousand words, and never was this more true than in the marketing and presentation of the cats to prospective new owners in Germany.
For each cat we need to provide Germany with six high quality images, size 800pixels.
In order to show the cat to as wide a prospective audience as possible please ensure that where possible these photos show:
- The Cat being stroked.
- The Cat playing with children
- The Cat playing with other cats, dogs etc
- The Cat asleep and looking relaxed
- The Cat cleaning itself
- The Cat eating
Obviously not all of the above are possible, but try and cover as many of them as you click. Prospective owners are keen to know how the cat is with children/other cats/dogs/humans etc so the more we are able to show them via good quality photos the better the chance you are giving the cat!
Remember the ‘Golden Question’: ask yourself if you saw the photos would you be interested in the cat.
Such is the importance of a good quality photograph we will only present cats to the German organisation for re-homing if they have good enough quality photographs, so please take your time over the photographs.
By way of example here are some examples of acceptable and not acceptable photos:

Please ensure the photos are in focus, no red eye, clearly show the actual colour of the cat, show the cat in its surroundings as well as front on close ups of the cat, a full picture of the cat, especially any unique or remarkable features.
We can also arrange to upload and make available any video that you have of the cat so please get in touch if you have shot some video and we will let you now what to do in terms of getting it to us.
