The Ernest Hemingway House in Key West, Florida is home to 52 cats, all descended from a cat owned by Hemingway named Snow White. Snow White was a polydactyl cat with one extra toe on each front paw. They are considered lucky by sailors.

The mutation which causes the extra toes is recessive, but due to selective breeding, over half of the cats at the Hemingway home have extra toes.

Keith Stokes usually has a camera in his hand - photographing Mackinaw City & Mackinac Island in northern Michigan for MightyMac.org, Kansas & Kansas City for KansasTravel.org and science fiction conventions for MidAmericon.org. His photos appear regularly in Locus Magazine, the Food Channel Magazine and other publications and books. His photograph of Pillsbury Crossing was the cover of a recent K-Stater Magazine.
