ABC Best Pet Social Distancing Contest!
Hello everybody! A huge thank you to all who have submitted your pictures. It’s so exciting to see how all our pets are doing and dealing with social distancing. Here are the first 10 submissions with a first extra surprise submission.
Submission #0: What a lovely surprise. It’s Pepsi and Scooter, Dr. Tufaro’s dogs. We told them they were not eligible for the prizes but they wanted to join in on all the fun. Look at them social distancing so nicely!
Submission #1: Diogenes and Aloysius
They are very healthy. With this isolation I get closer and closer to them. Maybe one day they will let me pick them up.
Submission #2: Sophia
Sophia Law is a very independent and sophisticated diva. If there’s any position where she takes a strong stand, it’s social distancing. She’ll go as far as keeping a distance from her 22-year-old brother Romeo and hiding underneath the sheets.
I think Sophia should win because she’s always been a survivor. I remember adopting her 16 years ago. Even then, she was an adult cat. In January of 2019, she was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism at ABC. Since then, she’s been stronger than ever. Please consider our beloved tabby for Best Cat!

Submission #3 Casanova
This is Casanova. During his stay at home time he has enjoyed extra cuddles from him humans who are ALWAYS around to love on him now, annoying his sister V, and of course trying to catch that damned red light that alludes him every time! What Cass enjoys the most however, are the long naps on his moms bed where he tucks himself under the blankets. Cass likes to think he’s showing us all how to stay calm. Be like Cass, stay home and comfy.

Submission # 4: Kafka and Toby
Kafka (L) and Toby (R) social distancing. They thought this distance was appropriate, proportional to their size. Kafka is trying to figure out how quickly he can pounce on Toby. She is trying to pretend he doesn’t exist.

This is our social distancing scratching post! Top 2 photo is Ziggy up top and Wyatt down below. Bottom photo – Wyatt (White kitty) up top with Candy O down below
