Libertad’s cat lady
A long time ago, this store used to house a Chinese restaurant, but now it sells the usual phone load, newspapers, magazines and cold drinks. In a busy place like Libertad near the Pasay Market, there is nothing unusual about that—except that next to the candies and cigarettes, there are several furry and very relaxed cats and kittens minding the store along with owner Mercedes Ong, or Bipo for short. There are about 30 at Bipo’s last count.
