Little white marketing lies?

Sharon, a real estate investor from Calgary, Alberta occasionally visits my blog.
If I recall correctly, she contacted me after she read one of my little rants about poor quality images in real estate listings. From time to time, she forwards copies of listed properties which strike her as ridiculous in some way. She has no shortage of material to choose from so she uses her discretion in sending me those which are the most fun.
Her latest email was this listing (no longer available), marketed by a Calgary agent who indicates on the listing that it is a “No Animal Home.” This image of the kitchen appears to show two food dishes on the floor in front of the kitchen cabinets. I’m thinking that these people either have a pet or some pretty nasty eating habits.
Sharon asks, “What are they thinking!?”
Sharon, I think it’s safe to say that someone is not thinking very much.
