Hemingway House

Ernest Hemingway was a very famous American author and journalist. One of the houses he lived in throughout his life is located right here in Key West. The house is open for poeple to tour through. The best part is it was free for locals :). Hemingway used to own around fifty cats on the property. He loved what is called a polydactyl or gypsy cat (a cat that has six toes rather than five). The house still has around 60 cats which are decendants from Hemingway's polydactyl cats.


6 toed cat :)
