00:00After the video of a stray cat being kicked by a pet lover group went viral,
00:06the complainant decided to eat the details of J.M. Pineda's letter.
00:14This post was received by a Samot Saring Reaction on social media
00:18by an animal welfare advocate of the Philippines.
00:22It was posted about the kick of a Chinese national
00:25in the community of Ayala Triangle Gardens.
00:28The cat was kicked by a foreigner who was also caught by CCTV.
00:33According to Kara Philippines, the man was brought to the barangay
00:36but because there was no formal complaint, he could not be jailed.
00:40The Chinese national also said that he just wrote to the Chinese embassy
00:44and refused to give the details of his complaint.
00:48On the other hand, a group decided to file a case of animal abuse against the foreigner.
00:54Under the R.A. 8485 or Animal Welfare Act of 1998,
00:59any kind of abuse and killing of animals is prohibited
01:03just like what the Chinese national did.
01:05Prisoners are waiting for the people who will do this.
01:24They will beat the cat because that's how bad the animal abuse is.
01:33According to the group, the situation now is more alarming
01:37because the animal abuse in our country is very serious.
01:41It is also a big thing that many people know the importance of respect for animals.
01:47It is also necessary to take action to reduce the animal abuse that is happening in the Philippines.
01:52We, the people, will speak up especially if there is a case of animal abuse.
02:01They will remind the public to be responsible individuals
02:05and to teach stray animals to their communities.
02:09It is also important to have a program for them.
02:12We will apply CNDR, which is Capture, Meter, Vaccinate, and Return.
02:18It's a program that is very effective in managing community animals,
02:24or stray animals for others.
02:26Because if the program is implemented in the neighborhoods,
02:30in residential areas, the animals will be monitored.
