Hurricane Irma: Staff at Ernest Hemingway house defy Florida evacuation order and hunker down with author's famous six-toed cats

To HECK with the staff, would someone please grab the cats?!

[Veto!]

I’ve been in that house. It’s two stories, made of very solid coral rock and , as the article points out, is 16 feet above sea level. It survived 200 mph winds and a 22-foot storm surge in the 1935 Key West Hurricane,

Take those kitties upstairs! And also, take in every other cat on the island.

Heard they are actually feral cats but they caught them and took them inside.
