Aiah Arceta, more popularly known as BINI Aiah, was given a dog at a recent event. However, due to her busy schedule, various netizens pointed out how wrong it was to gift her a pet. This situation led to Aiah’s official fan base releasing a statement.
The official fan base captioned their statement, “Everyone is welcome to coordinate with the BINI Official Fanbases about giving gifts to the members. Our apologies if we are not able to respond to your queries immediately. But, we assure you that we will answer all your questions and concerts. Thank you.”

Multiple fans shared that pets shouldn’t be given as gifts. However, this is a general consensus in the online community since animals are a responsibility. Fans continue to hope that other BINI members will no longer receive pets.
Additionally, the giver responded to BINI Aiah OFC’s X (formerly Twitter) statement. She says that management gave her consent to give Aiah Arceta the dog. However, this was after multiple attempts to give her the pup.

In her thread, she says it would’ve been fine if the Philippine Pop idol rejected the dog. To this, a Redditor responded, “Joke time ba ‘to? In denial si ate because obviously she was not fine with it. After all the declining and ignoring, pinilit at pinilit pa rin niya in the end. Parang naging public proposal yung nangyari tuloy lol ang sakit sa ulo niya + thread niya.”

Another user commented, “So, lemme get this straight. Sinabihan na siya ng “no” ng official fansite and still tried to contact Aiah and her family about it? And what? She wants to let Aiah decide in a PUBLIC event? If she will take the gift or not? Ba’t ba ‘yung ibang fans they always like to put the girls in a difficult situation?
Knowing na tutok lahat sa BINI ngayon. Does she think Aiah won’t get any backlash if she said no? Girl, you gave her no choice kasi papansin kang clout chaser ka. Sana nga di makatulog, epal ka eh.”

The BINI members have a packed schedule ahead of them. Recently, they just came from a Billboard Korea event with SB19. They also have an upcoming three-day Grand BINIverse concert at the Araneta Coliseum.

One user replied to the post saying, “So you’re saying artists aren’t allowed to own a pet because they’re busy? What Aiah is doing is compromising because she wants the dog. What is your problem really?”

Another fan replied, “Ling was sent to Cebu for a reason. They gave the dog to her without consent, and the other fans might copy what the OP did and give the girls pets. Taking care of a dog is a big responsibility. She is too busy to take care of the puppy. It’s a life we’re talking about here.”
bffr. Ling was sent to Cebu for a reason. They gave the dog to her without consent, and the other fans might copy what the op did and give the girls pets. Taking care of a dog is a big responsibility. She is too busy to take care of the puppy. It's a life we r talking ab here.

The cat is now with her family in Cebu.
Team Bloom PH also spoke up on the Aiah Arceta pet-giving situation, discouraging fans from giving them on-the-spot gifts.
This is not a reminder but a request.
