Abstract

As the COVID-19 pandemic brings together health professionals from across the world to address the difficulties in controlling and reducing its spread, experts in human health are also considering the cost of control measures on human psychological welfare. This article concludes a short series of three pieces, considering the immediate consequences to our companion animals of reduced access to environmental and social stimulation outside the home while these animals experience increased exposure to social stimuli within the home. Some long-term emotional and behavioural effects are also considered. This article focuses on the welfare changes to equines, parrots and small prey animals as COVID-19 restrictions continue.
