Animal guardians from all over the country gathered at the SMX Convention Center at the Mall of Asia in Pasay city for an unforgettable weekend at the Philippine Pet Expo 2024 with friends and family — and that includes their animal companions!
ALL SPECIES WELCOME
Organized by Q-Mark Pet Products in partnership with the International Gamefowl Festival organized by DeltaMan, the expo had an exciting lineup of talks, raffles, products, plus all kinds of animals for everyone to behold.
The affair brought together under one roof different people who were fond of animals, may they be Dogs and Cats or Fishes and Birds. Animal companions — furry or scaly, conventional or exotic — were equally celebrated.
APPRECIATING ANIMALS UP CLOSE
Guests enjoyed the pet fashion show and learned about aquarium care from experts. There were animals waiting for their forever-families during the adoption drives. Everyone had the chance to walk up to different animals and see them up close, including those who participated in competitions.
Two such competitions were the National Leopard Gecko Show judged by the internationally recognized expert Fakhri Auzan from RepJak Malaysia, and the Philippine Rabbit and Cavy Club’s Rabbit and Cavy Show.
MERCHANDISE AND MEMORIES
Different brands came together to showcase the latest trends in animal care. Visitors scored amazing deals on products from brands like Hikari, Zoo Med, Versele Laga, and API. It was the perfect time for attendees to stock up on treats, toys, grooming essentials, and specialty food items.
As the curtains closed on another successful year, organizers of the affair were happy with the turnout and the positive feedback they got from participants, all of which was proof of the thriving and ever-growing community of animal guardians in the Philippines.
WHAT TO EXPECT NEXT YEAR
Organizers are already gearing up for the next installment of the Philippine Pet Expo in 2025. With plans to make it even bigger and better than this year, they are inviting animal guardians of all ages to mark their calendars early next year, most likely during the weekends of January or February.
