I've probably gained around 7 pounds since we went into "lockdown" mode. You? However- Us humans aren't the only ones struggling with our weight.
This story was in the NY Post and according to a new survey by Wakefield Research for Banfield Pet Hospital, 33% of pets have also added some pounds since we started staying home in March. 25% of pet owners surveyed said their pets gained “a little weight.” 8% said their pets “gained a lot of weight.”
The probable reason? We are snacking more and sharing those snacks with our pets more often than is usual. 40% of us with pets surveyed say that we're feeding our pets more treats since Covid-19 hit.
