Angeles City’s “30 Days of Christmas” celebration continues with a heartwarming feature from the City Information Office, showcasing the touching story of Mrs. Corazon Caranto Devota, a May Malasakit na Angeleño, and her adopted pet, Kobe. Their journey reflects the profound joy that comes from giving a rescued animal a loving home.
Mrs. Corazon first visited the Angeles City Veterinary Office simply to have her family’s cat checked. But during that routine visit, she noticed a tiny one-month-old aspin in the corner—Kobe. Unaware that adoption was possible at the City Veterinary Office, she and her family asked, took a chance, and soon discovered that fate had paved the way for a new chapter in their lives.
Now 1 year and 5 months old, Kobe is healthy, lively, and beloved. On his first birthday, Mrs. Corazon returned to the Veterinary Office with shanghai and pancit as a gesture of gratitude. Her thanks were not only for the care given to Kobe but for bringing unexpected happiness into their home.
Since Kobe’s arrival, Christmas has never been the same for the Devota family. For Mrs. Corazon, Kobe is no longer just a pet—he is like a grandchild who fills their days with affection, excitement, and warmth. His presence has made their celebrations more meaningful.
Everywhere they go, Kobe’s wagging tail and eagerness for hugs remind the family of the joy that pets bring. For Mrs. Corazon, he is the source of her holiday cheer, describing him as someone who brings color and love into her life in the purest way.
To fellow Angeleños considering adoption, she offers encouraging words: don’t hesitate. She describes adopted pets as sweet, loving companions who bring structure, happiness, and a sense of family into one’s life. She also urges future fur parents to be responsible—giving time, care, and love to their adopted animals.
Mrs. Corazon praised the City Veterinary Office for its support, such as follow-up calls, wellness checks, and free vitamins for Kobe. Her story reminds the community that the best gifts are often not wrapped—they may have four paws, a wagging tail, and a heart ready to love unconditionally. This Christmas, Angeles City celebrates the joy of giving rescued pets a new life and a new home.
