In the midst of all the troubles New Yorkers, in particular, are having, the pet adoptions are apparently going so well there aren't any pets left to adopt, according to this news report:

@GingerPeach -

Wow, that makes me cry.

I wish it could be that way all over!

Yea NY!

What a blessing!

SCRNYC rescued my boy from NYCAC just in the nick of time. NYCAC is a #ellhole imho and my heart bleeds for all the poor furbabies who land up in that high-kill "shelter".

My boy was brought up to me 4yrs ago. He is such a blessing. Eddy puts a smile on the faceand joy to EVERYONE he meets!

Thank you for sharing that story and the beautiful picture! I suspect that many like myself are hugging their fur children, so grateful to the recipients of their love, comfort and support. I also pray that there will be angels to take care of the pets of those who are victims of the virus.

I've been wondering what happens to the pets left behind by covid19 patients who live alone. I imagine you would need masks and gloves to enter homes to feed or retrieve the pets. In Philadelphia we have the Red Paw Emergency Relief team who rescue pets from house fires but I don't know how they would handle this situation.
