PERSUASIVE
TEXT

28. Are you an animal lover? One who considers these creatures as God’s children
too? Roam around your community and you will find on the streets
innumerable hungry, sick stray dogs and cats waiting to be saved. Adopting
these strays is the best solution there is.
Opening your home to neglected animals give more benefits than detriments.
Aside from having a loyal house-guard, a dog or a cat can be your lifetime
friend who will love you unconditionally. The joy these animals bring wards off
depression and the feeling of loneliness.
Believe me, your life will be more meaningful if you open your heart to take in
the homeless dogs or cats. I know because I’ve done it too and it’s a very
rewarding experience!
