I find the smell of most homes that have dogs in them to be organic at best, but I would NEVER walk into a home of a total stranger and say'”It stinks like animals, it stinks like animals!’ and nearly run out, especially when said stranger has been told, I have pets. I just think this old fella saw my ferret and freaked. Crazy old folks from Fox.
Chalk this up to one of the joys of selling furniture on Craigslist.
For the record, EVERY person who was ever doubtful about coming into my home which has ferrets and cats has all but exclaimed, your house smells so nice! I take care to not have a stinky house.
