Hemingway Home
His Last Penny and the Six Toed Cats
The Ernest Hemingway home at 907 Whitehead Street in Key West has become a popular tourist attraction. The famous author and his wife Pauline lived there with their many cats and their sons Patrick and Gregory from 1931 until 1940.
Their house was originally built in 1851 in the Spanish Colonial style of architecture popular in Key West in those days. It feels like the Hemingways still live there because a lot of the furnishings belonged to them.
