No Mistaken Identity

Some say I look like Hemingway Some say he looks like me. But six-toed cats cannot be fooled That’s why, from me, they flee. Written by John Posey 03-16-13

This is really funny stuff! I honestly have no idea what Hemingway looks like, but the six-toed cats part gave me a hilarious image!

Thanks, Anne. I have been to the home of the Hemingway cats and lived every moment suffering from their aloofness. Normal cats are wonderful... Add an additional toe to each foot and they become divine...... Jake
