Michele Gumabao stresses responsible pet care

Volleyball player and beauty queen Michele Gumabao emphasizes that pets are part of the family and deserve care.

Growing up in a pet-loving household with siblings who also have pets, Michele now owns five Maltese dogs, which she brought to her unveiling as the new face for the pet app Unleash last February 28.

Michele shared during an interview that caring for pets means giving them time and commitment beyond just material things, highlighting the importance of being a responsible fur parent.

She encourages fellow pet owners to enjoy quality time with their animals and love them unconditionally.

Muji Jaafar, operations director at Unleash, highlights the significance of adopting pets from shelters and supporting their need for loving homes.
