The Quezon City Government through the city’s Animal Welfare and Rehabilitation Program has established an adoption center for impounded and neglected animals.

The 450-square meter pet adoption center in Barangay Payatas can provide temporary homes to up to 60 animals until they find a new family. The facility also has a surgery room for dogs and cats that need to be neutered and spayed, and for other animals that need immediate medical attention.

There are two cages to separate sick animals from the healthy ones. This is to prevent them from infecting the other healthy animals. The animals will also be rehabilitated before being offered for adoption.

This is the first comprehensive approach to rehabilitating animals to find them a new home.
