With lockdown continuing for almost two months, it has become extremely difficult for many people to meet ends. And closed shops and stores also affects the stray animals. With restaurants and street-side food stalls closing down, and with fewer feeders venturing out because of the lockdown, stray animals have even fewer options to salvage food from. But, it's the tough times that bring out the humane side in us. And someone is keeping an eye on these stay animals as well. Meet the NGOs feeding stray animals during the lockdown and helping them survive the tough time.

Friendicoes
Another one of the local NGOs feeding stray animals, Friendicoes is feeding 1300 animals on the streets during the lockdown and is hoping to continue it till the lockdown is completely lifted.
This Pune based NGO has been earlier associated with multiple rescue operations not only in the city but also in areas nearby. As of now, they are not only feeding strays, 7000 dogs every day but also supplying food to other feeders.
The pandemic has not only affected the stray animals but, misleading news of animals spreading the virus resulted in many pets getting abandoned too. Yoda, an animal rescue organization in Mumbai, has been taking care of the injured and abandoned pets amidst the lockdown as well as feeding strays.
