For many Filipino moms, pets are part of the family. They grow up alongside our kids, teach responsibility, and become daily sources of comfort and joy. This shared bond was at the heart of Royal Canin Community Weekend 2025, a two-day gathering that brought families, pet parents, and experts together to celebrate responsible pet ownership through learning, connection, and advocacy.
Held at the Eastwood Open Plaza in Quezon City, the event reflected Royal Canin’s long-standing commitment to helping pet parents make informed, science-based decisions for their cats and dogs. The weekend created a welcoming space where first-time fur moms, seasoned pet parents, and even kids could learn practical ways to care for pets—without feeling overwhelmed.
The celebration opened with a community pet walk led by UP MV K9 and Hound Haven PH, setting a warm and inclusive tone. Throughout the weekend, moms and families joined mini-classes on tailored pet nutrition, dog behavior, and responsible ownership. Children were not left out: storybook readings of “Welcome Home, Rocky & Charlie!” and hands-on activities helped teach empathy and kindness toward animals at an early age.
What made the event especially meaningful for families was its focus on everyday pet care. Personalized nutrition, regular vet checkups, and safe home environments were explained in simple, relatable ways. Pet parents who purchased Royal Canin products also received complimentary vet consultations and basic grooming services, giving busy moms a chance to address pet concerns in one place.
Responsible adoption and sustainability were also highlighted. In the rehoming area, organized with trusted breeders, cats and dogs found new families—an important reminder that adoption is a lifelong commitment. A sustainability booth encouraged attendees to recycle clean, empty Royal Canin bags, showing how small habits can make a difference for the planet.
Expert talks from veterinary and nutrition specialists reinforced the idea that no two pets are the same. Factors like age, breed, size, and lifestyle all matter when choosing the right nutrition. This science-led approach resonated with many parents who already understand how personalized care matters just as much for pets as it does for children.
Beyond the event, Royal Canin continues to support Filipino pet families through the Royal Canin Club, a loyalty and education platform that offers ongoing access to expert advice, learning resources, and rewards. These efforts reflect the brand’s broader purpose of creating A Better World for Pets—one informed family at a time.
For moms juggling home, work, kids, and pets, Community Weekend 2025 was a reminder that responsible pet ownership doesn’t have to be complicated. With the right support, knowledge, and community, caring for our furry family members becomes a shared and joyful journey.
