Hemingway Cats

** FILE ** Patches, one of more than 60 cats in residence at the Ernest Hemingway Home & Museum in Key West, Fla., prowls through the late author’s writing room in this Saturday, July 13, 2002 file photo, between Hemingway’s typewriter and his classic, “The Old Man and the Sea.” City officials have sided with Ernest Hemingway’s former home and its celebrated six-toed felines in its catfight with the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The Key West City Commission exempted the home from a city law prohibiting more than four domestic animals per household. (AP Photo/Florida Keys News Bureau, Roberto Rodriguez)
