Award-winning actor John Arcilla has called for the arrest and imprisonment of those responsible for the dumping of 25 dead dogs and cats in San Jose del Monte, Bulacan.
In a Facebook post, Arcilla condemned the incident, describing it as a crime and a betrayal of pet owners who paid for proper cremation services for their deceased animals.
He stressed that pet owners entrusted the facility with their beloved companions, only for their remains to allegedly be dumped in a vacant lot.
Meanwhile, animal welfare group Luna and Furry Siblings identified AhJay Paws Aftercare, a pet aftercare facility based in Bacoor, Cavite, as the alleged party responsible.
The group said all 25 animal remains had been identified and returned to their respective owners.
It is also preparing to file complaints against the facility.
Bacoor City Mayor Strike Revilla has ordered the facility’s closure and the cancellation of its permits.
Animal welfare groups are also calling for a thorough investigation and accountability for those involved.
