Good luck with the vet, Deilla, our vet has set up a strict protocol for visits - appointment only, mask usage, only one person allowed in the consultation room, etc. We haven’t had to take our pets in, but I feel pretty good about taking them there if we had to.
In my country, despite curfew and lockdowns in many areas, crime is still an issue – carjackings, burglaries, etc. I think it’s in part criminals taking advantage of the fact that the police are occupied enforcing the curfew/lockdowns and in part due to desperation as a result of the economic situation
