Since the founding of Cats of Quezon Province in 2020, Sir Ken has remained deeply committed to building a more compassionate and harmonious community where humans and our beloved puspins and aspins can thrive together 🐾

Throughout the years, Sir Ken has been profoundly grateful to Ms. Eva of Wise Cats for her unwavering support and dedication. Her consistent efforts - especially in raising awareness about the long-term benefits of kapon among our fur parents - have played a vital role in advancing our advocacy 🐶🐱

On behalf of Sir Ken and Sir Jeric, we extend our heartfelt appreciation to you, Ma’am Eva, for the trust and support you have generously given to all the programs of Cats of Quezon Province, particularly our kapon initiatives 💚

PET SAFETY REMINDERS NO PETS LEFT BEHIND

A gentle reminder to all fur parents: during heavy rains, stay alert and always prioritize the safety of both your family and your pets. If evacuation is needed, do not delay. It is much safer to leave early and bring them with you.

EVACUATE WITH THEM When evacuating, never forget your pets. Their lives matter too, and they should not be left behind. Prepare their basic needs ahead of time so that their safety and well-being are secured before the situation worsens.

PROVIDE TEMPORARY SHELTER FOR STRAY CATS & DOGS Not all aspins (native dogs) and puspins (native cats) are fortunate to have homes or responsible fur parents. If possible, let us show compassion by offering them temporary shelter. Alongside this, please also provide clean water and food while they seek refuge.

RELEASE YOUR PETS FROM CHAINS, CAGES, OR LEASHES If your pets are tied, caged, or restricted, give them freedom. During disasters, their safety relies on their ability to run, find shelter, and trust their natural survival instincts. Just like humans, dogs and cats also fight to survive—let us give them the chance to do so.

NATIONAL ADOPT A CAT MONTH

June is National Adopt a Cat Month, a wonderful opportunity to open your heart and home to a little furry friend in need of love and shelter.

Every year, thousands of cats and kittens are abandoned or left to roam the streets, hoping to find someone willing to give them a second chance at a better life.

DON'T SEPARATE! DON'T ABANDON! SPAY AND NEUTER ARE THE SOLUTION!

Today is July 10, National Kittens Day! And because of that, we earnestly appeal to the public!!! Please do not abandon or separate kittens from their mothers, especially those below four (4) months of age. At this critical stage in their development, kittens rely heavily on their mother’s care for nourishment, warmth, immunity, and emotional security. Without their mother, they are highly vulnerable to malnutrition due to the absence of natural milk. They are at increased risk of sickness, infection and organ failure because their immune systems are not yet fully developed. Many face the unfortunate outcome of death due to the lack of maternal care and protection. While animal rescuers and advocates do their best to provide emergency care for abandoned kittens, nothing can truly replace the vital role of a mother cat. The survival rate of orphaned kittens, especially neonates, remains alarmingly low despite all efforts. Even with bottle feeding and external warmth, the absence of maternal instinct and natural care can lead to suffering or early death. That’s why Cats of Quezon Province is asking everyone to PLEASE DO NOT SEPARATE young kittens from their mothers. Let them grow stronger in their natural environment until they are at least 4 months old. After that, placing those kittens up for adoption when they reach the proper age can help provide them with a brighter future under the care of responsible fur parents. Spaying the mother cat is the true and humane solution to the growing problem of cat overpopulation and abandonment.

BEWARE EVERYONE! PLEASE HELP US TO SPREAD THIS AWARENESS!

Following the legal advice of Sir Ken's lawyer, he cannot publicly name the fraudulent animal shelters and advocates in question without risking legal consequences, even though his intention is to promote the welfare of animals in Quezon Province.

To help protect innocent animals and ensure genuine advocacy, we encourage everyone to watch out for these red flags that may indicate fraudulent behavior by animal shelters or advocates!

⚠️ Lack of Transparency ⚠️ Public Manipulation ⚠️ Poor Animal Welfare ⚠️ Inconsistent Stories ⚠️ Hoarding Cats & Dogs ⚠️ Social Media Focus Over Animal Welfare ⚠️ Pressure Tactics

If you notice these ⚠️ warning signs, think carefully before offering your support. Let’s ensure that help goes to those who truly prioritize the well-being of animals, rather than those who exploit them for personal gain.
