Ernest Hemingway holds his cat Cristobal Colón in one hand as he uses the other to type while sitting at his desk at Finca Vigia, near San Francisco de Paula, Cuba, circa 1954. The writer was so fond of cats that he had dozens at a time and allowed them to sleep in a spare bedroom
Hemingway, who died aged 61 in 1961, was a renowed lover of cats, keeping dozens at any one time.
'One cat just leads to another,' he wrote to his first wife, Hadley Mowrer, in 1943 . 'The place is so damned big it doesn't really seem as though there were many cats until you see them all moving like a mass migration at feeding time .'
Hemingway's cats were always treated to the best and even had their own guest bedroom in the writer's Cuban home. Most of his moggies, or as he liked to call them, 'purr factories' and 'love sponges,' had free run of the tropical abode.
