There’s only one Spartacus! ‘Britain’s sleepiest pet’ has finally been crowned

Spartacus reigns supreme once again, defeating over 650 pets to be crowned Britain’s sleepiest pet.

AFTER a recent survey of 2,000 respondents found that over a third (34%) of Brits don’t let their pets sleep in or on their bed, online bed and mattress specialist, Bed SOS, launched a competition to find the nation’s ‘sleepiest pet’.

As you can guess, this led to an influx of pictures from pet owners of their pets dozing off in some rather bizarre places and positions!

After receiving over 650 entries, Amy Briscoe from Southampton was chosen as the winner after a picture of her cat, Spartacus, sleeping awkwardly on a towel rail, had the judges in stitches.

Sleepy Spartacus: Amy Briscoe’s feline was crowned the nation’s sleepiest pet.

Danny Richmond, Managing Director of Bed SOS said: “The standard of the entries was incredibly high and we faced the almost impossible task of narrowing down hundreds of adorable pictures of pets to select the winner.

“We felt that Amy’s entry perfectly showcases just how cute, and strange, pets can be!”

Once presented with the award of a brand new bed worth up to £400, Amy passed on a comment from an excited Spartacus.

She said: “This new bed means that I can snuggle up ALL day in comfort. I won’t ever get off the new bed and I will be the happiest cat alive!”
