MUMBAI: The Coronavirus pandemic has brought the world to a standstill. All of us are under house arrest, as the government has announced a nation-wide lockdown for 21 days.
Amidst this scary situation, many false rumours are being spread. Moreover, animal cruelty has become a topic of discussion. Stray animals are not being fed, as several people believe that they spread the virus.

Recently, Kapil Sharma, who has two pets, told a media portal, 'It was a rumour. When something like this happens, there are always rumours. Some people must have spread these false rumours. It's nothing like that. It's stupid for someone to believe these rumours! There are pets in my house as well. There is a small baby in our house. I will obviously be aware of the fact if it was true. We would have taken the necessary precautions. Coronavirus doesn't spread due to pets. We should all take care of our pets and even offer food to stray dogs. You will get good blessings, believe me.'

Well, we could not agree more. Do you also have pets at home? Do spread awareness in the comments below.
