Working from home gives us furry officemates

Lorna Krkich's Kitty Bubka demonstrates social distancing from neighbor Brewer.

As we shelter in place during the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us find ourselves sharing workspace with our pets. Some ANR colleagues have posted photos of their four-legged coworkers on social media. We could all use some softer news with images of cute animals.

If you would like to share a photo of your pet, please email it to pam.kanrice@ucanr.edu along with your pet's name and temporary job title. Pets need not be furry, we welcome diversity.

Here are some pics of ANR's work-from-home support staff:
