There is a bi-polar drug that does this to people....doesn't necessarily have to be about cats, but it gives them obsessions that are never fully quenched.

Even the listing says "bring your sandblaster!" I have to think it would be a tear down if someone buys it.

But I suppose if it's near enough to a major highway, maybe someone will want it to set up one of those quaint roadside attractions people stop to visit just to say they've been there?

Folk art!! It's folk art, folks. Or folk architecture.

Sort of. Though I doubt if this masterpiece makes it into any coffee table books or museums.

I like cats a lot - but this would drive me nuts. Maybe the creator was a cat in a former life and o.d.ed on catnip. Lots of catnip...

That was my impression as well. It even has counters like you would find in an office type environment.

Another entry in "you need to see it to believe it!" house listings.

Not nearly as extreme as the cat house, yet unique in it's own way

People here often ask about making certain "renovations" and invariably the issue of "resale" comes up.


I'm guessing this homeowner was not much into "resale".

Ooh, I like the bi-polar effect of the bedroom in picture #13: bordello red damask wallpaper paired with sweet schoolgirl floral bedding and drapes. The best of two erotic fantasy worlds!

Definitely looks like a rescue/pet boarding business.
