ANGELES CITY, PAMPANGA - The Angeles City Veterinary Office has officially opened its pet adoption program, inviting residents to give stray and abandoned dogs and cats a second chance at a loving home. Supported by Mayor Carmelo "Jon" Lazatin II, the program offers a compassionate and responsible way for Angeleños to find new furry family members while helping address the stray animal population in the city.
Adoption Details and What to Expect
The adoption program is open to all residents, and interested individuals can visit the Angeles City Veterinary Office located at the Angeles City Hall in Pulung Maragul. The office is open Monday to Thursday, from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, where potential adopters can meet the cats and dogs waiting for their forever homes . All animals available for adoption are cared for by the City Veterinary team and receive necessary vaccinations and deworming before being placed with their new families. This ensures that pets are healthy and ready for a smooth transition into their new homes.
Why Adopting Matters
Beyond giving a loving home to a stray animal, adopting a pet from the City Vet helps reduce the number of stray animals on the streets and promotes responsible pet ownership. This adoption program builds on the city's other animal welfare initiatives, including the free anti-rabies vaccination drives that have been consistently conducted across different barangays to protect both pets and the community . The pet adoption program is a life-saving solution for the stray animal population and offers a meaningful way to experience the joy of pet ownership while making a positive impact. Potential adopters are encouraged to visit the City Vet during office hours to meet the animals and start the adoption process.
