A misleading poster led to many owners letting go of their pets due to fear of contracting coronavirus, however that is not the case and celebrities like Twinkle Khanna, Arjun Kapoor and Kriti Sanon proved the same
Twinkle Khanna, Arjun Kapoor, Kriti Sanon and Mini Mathur posted some love-filled images of them cuddling their pets on their individual Instagram accounts. This happens after a misleading poster caused many owners to abandon their pets in fear of spreading coronavirus.
However, contrary to their belief, pets do not contain or carry coronavirus. Thus, the celebrities posted images to raise awareness that pets deserve all the love, which humans are capable of giving them without fear at this crucial moment.
Take a look at the posts:

"Animals do NOT carry or transmit COVID-19 ! Get that straight. Human beings do. As a pet owner & animal lover it’s disturbing to see people abandoning their pets thinking they are possible carriers of the disease. Be careful and wash their paws after a walk but abandoning them so you don’t have to walk them is like walking out on a child coz it’s extra work!! The BMC has clarified the findings (see last photo). Cuddle them. Feed the ones you don’t know. They aren’t to blame for this mess," posted Mini.
