Abstract

During the first, the second and the third wave of coronavirus infections in Poland, the authors conducted empirical online research inspired by the theoretical potential of everyday life sociology and the sociology of disaster. One of the interesting problems which came to the surface when the project was carried out, was the issue of changes in human-animal relations, in the behaviour of animals during lockdown and in people’s own behaviour towards animals. Interpretations of the research results presented in this paper concern two spheres: the home sphere – with the animals which live in it – and the urban sphere – including the free-living animals (also homeless and abandoned ones). We believe that the results of this research contribute to the broadening of our knowledge on the matter of human-animal familiarness as well as on urban ecosystems and the possibilities of their cultural-environmental exploration.
