According to Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG), the celebration is aimed to inculcate in the heart and mind of individuals, particularly the youth, to love and be kind to animals, whether domesticated or wildlife. It furthers the aim of enhancing virtues of kindness, justice, and protection of all living creatures as the greatest contributing factor to maintain and restore the country's ecological balance.
Please STOP ANIMAL CRUELTY, ADOPT a PET and SAVE LIFE. Animals have no full capacity like humans do. They have emotions and can recognize but they have no voice that humans will easily understand.
