This is Bertie, winner of this year's Evening Gazette's summer Pet Idol.
He is the reigning champ - but he is about to be overthrown.
In tonight's Evening Gazette is the Christmas Pet Idol 2006 gallery - and one of the 134 entries is about to take Bertie's crown.
Who will it be? Why not buy the Evening Gazette and take part in the voting?
It's a cinch - and you could be choosing our next champion.
The winner will be announced in the Evening Gazette on Thursday, December 12.
