# Catster's Weekly Photo Contest Winners: Hide and Seek (April 30, 2026)
Catster announced the winners of its weekly photo contest themed around hide and seek on April 30, 2026. The contest invited cat owners to submit photos capturing their felines in hiding spots or playing the classic game of concealment.
The winning entries showcased cats demonstrating their natural hunting instincts and love for enclosed spaces. Cats excel at hide and seek because they instinctively seek out small, confined areas that offer security and vantage points for surveying their environment.
This weekly contest reflects the growing trend of pet owners sharing their animals' everyday moments on social media and photography platforms. Catster uses these competitions to engage its community and celebrate the unique personalities of individual cats.
The contest format encourages cat owners to observe their pets' behavior more closely. Many cats spend significant portions of their day in hiding spots behind furniture, in closets, or under blankets. Photography contests like this one highlight how enriching play and mental stimulation through games benefits indoor cats.
Weekly photo contests serve dual purposes: they entertain the community while promoting awareness about feline behavior and enrichment needs. Catster continues this tradition as a way to celebrate the diverse breeds and personalities within its reader base.
