Ugly House Photos

That Cats & Dogs sequel movie didn’t do so well at the box office.  These were audition photos from aspiring pet actors.

These two dogs also auditioned for the new Exorcist movie.

This dog wanted to be Sylvester Stallone’s sidekick in The Expendables.

This bulldog wanted to change the title Eat Pray Love to Eat Sleep Lick.

Meow.  She wanted to play a counter intelligence agent in the spy movie Salt.

How about waiting until after the yard sale to take the real estate photos?

Dotty the Dalmatian dog greets us in the junky back yard.

Dotty apologizes for her owner’s messy kitchen.

The living room is a mess.  Where’s the fireplace?

A bedroom?

Another messy bedroom.  Thank you, Melody, for sending us these photos.

If you like ugly, dirty homes, be sure to watch Animal Planet’s new show Confessions: Animal Hoarding on Wednesdays.  This week, a lady had 97 dogs and 17 cats.

These photos aren’t from the TV show.  But they show the destruction from too many pets.

Pet food cans piled up on top of ????  See the cat on the right side?  Meow.

Let’s put a few paint samples on the wall to see if we like it.  Then let’s not do anything.  And then take photos for the listing.  Let the buyers decide which color to use.

Let’s do the same thing in the dining room.

At least the blue sponge paint matches the water bottle’s label?

It’s a dog in a cage with one of those cat tower things.  This is what buyers will remember about this house.  Clean kitchen, big rooms, nice tile floors?  Nope.  It’s the house with blue paint and a crazy dog cage.

A new TV show debuted this week called Confessions: Animal Hoarding on Animal Planet. [warning: the link loads with a loud commercial].  We’ve seen TV shows about hoarding.  This one specializes in people who hoard pets.  You know, the Cat Lady with 50+ cats.  It raises the bar on scary, dirty, filthy, unhealthy, cruelness to animals, creepiness, etc.

Real estate photographers are too afraid to move pets out of the way.

Dog in Phoenix.

Cat and dog in Bangor, Maine.  Does the photographer get seven years of bad luck since the black cat crossed his/her path?  The cable was run into this room so they can watch Animal Planet there.

Cat in another Bangor, Maine home.

Cats are popular in Bangor, Maine.

At least someone is trying to remove the cat, although a bit too late.  Lansing, Michigan.

One of our readers spotted this listing in Clanton, Alabama.  The owner’s dog is here to greet you.  He says, “Please ignore the 90% humidity in Alabama.  It makes the blue sky turn white.”

Seems they have a cooling issue in the kitchen.  A fan on the left and a window air conditioner above the kitchen sink!  If you can’t take the heat, get an A/C in the kitchen.

This Bangor, Maine home would show much better with 75% of the belongings packed away first.  The living room.  What is the towel covering up by the TV?  Why is the cable running along the room?

Pan to the left and we see more stuff piled up.  And a Spiderman blanket.

Pan to the left again.  Too bad they are not showing off the windows and the nice hardwood floors.

Over in the family room, more clutter.  Couldn’t this have been stored before listing the house?

Pan right to see more stuff.

The cluttered kitchen features a crammed packed baker’s rack, a mess of shoes under the table, and a caged dog.

In one of the bedrooms we see an Ab Lounge, a shop vacuum, and piles of towels.  And a lot of unnecessary containers.

And finally in another bedroom we see several posters and assorted stuff.  Not bad, actually, for a teenager’s room.

Too cute to leave out of the real estate photo.

Poodle!  And a rowing machine in the dining room with a hidden fireplace.

It is a tidy house.  Enjoyed by a dog, a cat on the counter, another cat on the chair, and a dead bison, dead bird of prey, dead pheasant, dead deer, and a dead antelope.

Now the cat is resting on the counter (where people prepare food).  It better get up soon or else it will end up on the wall with the other dead animals.

Over in the family room, we’ve got a dead elk, dead turkey, knick knacks, & a cat tower.

And in the bedroom, an elk hide and a bobcat.
