    I’ve been to the house. It’s mostly open to the cats, and they say they’re not allowed but every visitor says there was a cat asleep on the bed.

    If you’re wondering, yes, the house does smell like cat pee.

    That’s a really nice house, why was bro so depressed anyway?

    Oh… PTSD, chronic pain, alcoholism and untreated mental illness.

    For those who are, like me, confused about how the cat could belong to a man who died an entire human lifetime ago: the museum houses descendants of Hemingway’s childhood cat (and a bunch of other cats too). The website has a page about them that includes pictures of a few https://www.hemingwayhome.com/our-cats

    I have ~5 polydactyl community cats in my neighborhood, use to be 7. I’ve adopted one of them, and another that is bonded with it that isn’t poly. My dad adopted one of the poly’s as well. If anyone wants them we have free polydactyl cats out here.

      Well, where are you?!

      I’m in northern Minnesota and could likely talk my wife into adopting a homeless cat!
