Abstract
It is now widely recognized that the COVID-19 pandemic has had a ripple effect with unintended consequences affecting many aspects of society. One such area of great concern has been an increase in cases of family violence. What are the options for a survivor to be able to escape in a world where home is not a safe place to be during stay-at-home orders? Pets are the collateral victims of domestic violence and are harmed, threatened or killed by abusers to manipulate and control human victims.
