ANIMAL welfare group CARA Welfare Philippines called on the public to help them identify a man who was caught on CCTV kicking a community cat at Ayala Triangle Gardens in Makati.
The cat, named Ken, did not survive the attack.
According to CARA Welfare, the man was confronted and taken to the barangay but refused to disclose his address, instead suggesting that inquiries be directed to the Chinese Embassy.
“We are deeply saddened by this act of cruelty. The cat was simply resting, unaware of the harm about to happen. We urge anyone with verified information about this individual to come forward,” the organization said in a statement.
A reward has been offered for credible leads that could help authorities take action.
Concerned individuals may reach out to CARA Welfare Philippines to assist in the case.
