The query for the cat:

select photo,
    alex + bob + carol + dave + ed as Total,
    alex, bob, carol, dave, ed
from crosstab($$
    select
        photo, voter,
        case decision when 'Cat' then 1 else 0 end
    from vote
    order by photo
    $$,'
    select distinct voter
    from vote
    order by voter
    '
) as (
    photo integer,
    Alex integer,
    Bob integer,
    Carol integer,
    Dave integer,
    Ed integer
);
 photo | total | alex | bob | carol | dave | ed 
-------+-------+------+-----+-------+------+----
     1 |     4 |    1 |   0 |     1 |    1 |  1
     2 |     3 |    1 |   0 |     1 |    1 |  0
     3 |     0 |    0 |   0 |     0 |    0 |  0
     4 |     1 |    0 |   0 |     1 |    0 |  0
     5 |     4 |    0 |   1 |     1 |    1 |  1

If the number of voters is big or not known then it can be done dynamically:

do $do$
declare
voter_list text;
r record;
begin

drop table if exists pivot;

voter_list := (
    select string_agg(distinct voter, ' ' order by voter) from vote
    );

execute(format('
    create table pivot (
        decision text,
        photo integer,
        Total integer,
        %1$s
    )', (replace(voter_list, ' ', ' integer, ') || ' integer')
));

for r in
select distinct decision from vote
loop
    execute (format($f$
        insert into pivot
        select
            %3$L as decision,
            photo,
            %1$s as Total,
            %2$s
        from crosstab($ct$
            select
                photo, voter,
                case decision when %3$L then 1 else 0 end
            from vote
            order by photo
            $ct$,$ct$
            select distinct voter
            from vote
            order by voter
            $ct$
        ) as (
            photo integer,
            %4$s
        );$f$,
        replace(voter_list, ' ', ' + '),
        replace(voter_list, ' ', ', '),
        r.decision,
        replace(voter_list, ' ', ' integer, ') || ' integer'
    ));
end loop;
end; $do$;

The above code created the table pivot with all the decisions:

select * from pivot where decision = 'Cat';
