    Whenever I have the opportunity to be a part of


    something that I am passionate about and
    something that I am deeply committed to, I would
    like to be involved with something that truly
    connects me and provides a platform for
    advocating on behalf of all animals.
    volunteer-based, non-government
    organization whose goal is to prevent animal
    cruelty
    I have noticed millions of stray cats and dogs that roamed the
    streets of the Philippines
    The current issue that we are facing due to this are damage
    property, particularly gardens, with their fences; and litter the
    streets by overturning dustbins, which according to my research
    increases the risk of disease and encourages rat, and attacking
    people. Large populations of stray dogs and cats are public health
    concerns. Dog bites, rabies, leptospirosis, cat scratch fever.
    Overpopulation, cruelty and neglection. the PAWS Animal
    Rehabilitation Center cares for around 300 dogs and cats
    rescued from cruelty or neglect.
    Not just cats and dogs but animal like as mice, rats, dogs, cats, rabbits, monkeys, birds, among others – are
    killed in laboratory experiments for chemical, drug, food, and cosmetics testing every year.
    To be honest, The Commission and responsibility for
    animals (CARA)’s advocating for” Adopt, don’t shop” has
    inspired me. It made me think that these issues calls for
    action. The most urgent actions that society collectively
    needs to do to address this issue. My first solution is to
    educate the Filipino people sharing important
    information for them to understand how serious the
    issue is and hopefully encourage them to be a part of
    change.
    I have visited the “paws” website and navigate to “volunteers” and it surprise me that they will be open for
    volunteers and will be accepting application for participant soon. And for me would be a great opportunity to be part
    of it in the future though the application for volunteers is currently closed I could think of any possible way to be
    part of it by sharing their posts on social media and by donating. I also participated in a petition to make companies
    stop experimenting on animals and for people to stop torturing and abusing animals. Animal such as mice, rats, dogs,
    cats, rabbits, monkeys, birds, among others – are killed in laboratory experiments worldwide for chemical, drug,
    food, and cosmetics testing every year however, I am looking forward
    by taking action against animal cruelty the least of things we could do, this type of petition is for everyone and it
    doesn’t cost any money and could save lives of innocent animals in the Philippines
