Happy 99K reads, lovelies! I have something I'd like to share with you. Please be kind to animals. They deserve love, care, and compassion too.
I saw a tiktok post of a cat being forced to drink alcohol. You know what's even more heartbreaking? The person who did it is a sacristan. Someone who serves in church. And honestly, that's what makes this situation even more disappointing.
You can serve at the altar every Sunday, memorize every prayer, and stand closest to the sanctuary, but none of that matters if you choose cruelty when no one is watching. Faith is not measured by how often you stand inside a church, but by how you treat God's creations outside of it.
ANIMAL ABUSE IS NEVER FUNNY, NEVER ACCEPTABLE, AND NEVER JUSTIFIABLE.
Under the Animal Welfare Act of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 8485, as amended by Republic Act No. 10631), acts of animal cruelty, abuse, and maltreatment are punishable by law.
Even the angels would refuse to carry a name stained by cruelty. No prayer sounds holy when it comes from the same hands that choose to make a helpless creature suffer.
