Thankfully, we've always kept pretty well stocked with food, litter, treats and such for our cat, Tinker (see avatar, he was a kitten then). Really haven't had too much trouble finding his wet food, treats, and litter at the grocery store. We get his Science Diet dry food in bulk from Amazon, so no worries there. And since he's an indoor cat, I don't have to worry about him being around other cats (just in case).  :peace: :heart:

I have no pets so that's not a worry for me but if I did I'd be concerned about getting their food

That's a good thing! Haven't tried the Science Diet dry food. does Tinker like it? I may purchase for my cat Felix.

The shelves at the pet stores by me are just as empty as the grocery store shelves. My dog is good on food, but I'm going to have to look for cat food soon since I was only able to buy a 2-pound bag last time.

Absolutely! Bought my cat some kitty treats as they will soon be a non essential item!

Our vet informed us that they can be infected and they have been sending us weekly email and updating Facebook daily.  We had to pick up medicine and prescription food this week and was not allowed to enter the building.  We called it like always but had to give them payment information over the phone, call them when we were in the parking lot and a tech in PPE brought out the medicine.  The cancelled all appointment unless it is emergency.

Yes I know. My dog is on a prescription dog food that I have to get from her vet. I made a trip up there last week to get her an extra bag just in case we go on lock down or in case they run out.

It sure is very important to take care of our pets and keep their interests as relevant as ours.
