Should you adopt a pet during the COVID-19 pandemic? The Lethbridge Humane Society is seeing an uptick in adoptions during the pandemic, and it’s also seeing people take the process more seriously.“Pretty much, everyone that does come in ends up filling out a form to adopt something, whereas before we had a lot of people coming and looking who weren’t deciding,” White went on to say.She adds people returning their pets has not been a frequent occurrence.Unfortunately, that hasn’t been the case at the Last Chance Cat Ranch in Lethbridge.“Well, we’ve had a good interest in adoptions, however, it’s been one of the worst years for people calling us about homeless cats that have been abandoned and owners that have surrendered them for whatever.
