Welcome to our Catster’s Cat of the Week winners’ gallery, where the cream of the feline crop takes center stage! Each week, our community of cat lovers submits their adorable, hilarious, and downright stunning photos, but only one lucky kitty from each category can take home the coveted title.

Whether it’s a fluffy diva lounging in a sunbeam, a grouchy, tooth-less senior cat grimacing at the camera, or a mischievous little troublemaker caught in a moment of pure chaos, these winners have captured the hearts of our team with their charm, beauty, and undeniable catitude.

Below you’ll find the purrfectly unforgettable moments from our past winners. These cats didn’t just win their category—they owned it! From majestic portraits to candid action shots, each photo tells a story that’s uniquely feline… and who knows? You might just find some inspiration for your submission and your kitty’s moment of glory!
