Edgar Allan Poe and His Cat

Tidbit today:

Edgar Allan Poe lived in Philadelphia for about six years (1838-1844), spending his last year to 18 months at a house on North 7th Street. With him lived his beloved wife Virginia, his treasured mother-in-law Maria Clemm, and their adored feline, a tortoise-shell tabby(not a black cat) named Catterina.
