Andrea Torres, Thea Tolentino, Arra San Agustin bond with rescued animals at PAWS
Andrea Torres, Thea Tolentino, and Arra San Agustin recently volunteered for the Philippine Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) where they visited and bonded with rescued animals.
On Instagram, the Sparkle stars shared about what they learned from the meaningful activity. They also posted snaps of themselves interacting with PAWS' cats, dogs, and resident turtle, learning about the shelter's facilities, and preparing the animals' meals.
According to Andrea, PAWS currently has 163 cats and 70 dogs under its care. In its facility, there are playgrounds for the animals to explore, as well as quarantine zones and designated spaces for animals who need extra care, such those with medical issues.
She also encouraged her followers to volunteer and consider adopting rescues if they can.
"It feels so good to help out. You'll also learn a lot about responsible pet ownership, and what to do if you ever come across an abandoned dog or cat. These animals deserve all the love in the world," she said.
Thea, for her part, shared that some of the animals under PAWS' care have "trauma from bad experiences with humans."
"Sa totoo lang, we can co-exist with these babies. People just need to learn how to respect and care for them. Kung ayaw niyo sa kanila, wag niyo na lang saktan please," she wrote.
Arra also called their visit to PAWS the "most heartwarming experience," noting that each animal there has their own story.
"Every single dog and cat there has a story, and all they want is a little love and a forever home. I'm so grateful for the chance to hang out with them," she said.

He also opened up to fans about getting nominated several times. It wasn't easy, he said, but he used it as fuel. "Just like what River (Joseph) told me, 'it always goes back to your why's,'" Michael said. "I wanted to stay true to myself and fight not just for me but also for those who believed in me." It's not just the housemates he's missing. He said he is also looking forward to hanging out with his duo Emilio Daez, and their friends from BINI, Jhoanna and Stacey.
