The famous polydactyl cats at the Ernest Hemingway house stroll the grounds, sleep on beds and in the gutters, and even have their own cemetery.
Typical cats have 18 toes: 5 on each front paw and 4 on each back paw. Polydactyl cats have as many as 9 toes per paw. Both Jake, a Canadian polydactyl cat, and Paws, an American polydactyl cat, were recognized by Guinness World Records as having the highest number of toes on a cat, 28.
