Description
One of the island�s most famous residents was a brawny, twenty-pound tomcat called Sambo Tonkus or Mr. T. Seeing how attached the cat was to the light, his first keeper owner left him at the station. After the cat had eaten all the mice on the island, one day Eugene Coleman (keeper 1930 to 1946) was shocked to see the tom paddle to the mainland and return with a fat mouse. The ginger-striped cat was a favorite with visitors and was written up in local newspapers for his swimming ability. (lighthousefriends.com)
