some totes cray-cray places to live.

Let's talk about that.

♪ (theme music) ♪

Good Mythical Morning.

Thank you for making us a part of your daily routine.

You didn't have to, but you did, and we thank you.

Some of you had to, though, because of that arrangement.

- You know, the thing that-- - (chuckling) You know.

Okay. Just kidding.

- People have pets. - Check.

And most people who have pets have a place for the pets,

unless you're like my uncle,

who has just a trailer that he shares with the animals.

I've had many acquaintances and relatives

who have had trailers with animals that lived underneath it.

Yeah, this is not that kind of situation.

This is pretty much the opposite end of the spectrum.

There are people who have gone what some might consider overboard

to accommodate their furry friends or feathered friends.

Pet domiciles, extreme.

Right, and so you could have gone on the Internet

and spent hours Googling "crazy pet homes,"

but you know what? You don't have to do that.

You can just spend some minutes with us,

and we're gonna go through and give you

- all the best stuff from the Internets. - Oh, great.

- I'm here. - Why not start with chicken coops?

Well, okay, one reason is because who cares about chicken coops?

Well, I didn't expect to find chicken coops

when I started looking at crazy pet homes.

But you would be surprised. People keep chickens as pets.

And it isn't just so they can make eggs.

Apparently so they can be their best friends,

'cause look at how this person has accommodated.

- It's just like Hobbiton. - Yeah, exactly.

How's the chicken gonna open that door? It's got a latch on it.

- It ain't gonna-- - With its beak.

Ain't no chicken gonna open that door with its beak.

Ain't no chicken got time for that.

Okay, this person has gone sort of, I would say, fancy.

Somebody has gone Pinterest on this chicken coop

is all I'm saying.

- This is like a Pottery Barn chicken. - (both laugh)

- You know? - Right.

I mean, these chickens don't know what's going on.

What's in that trashcan?

Well, what's in the trashcan is feed, and then in the other one

- it's chicken poop. - And then there's a frame

that's got another framed picture inside it that's got a cow.

What is that? To remind them what kind of farm animal

- they're not? - I have pictures of nonhuman things

- in my house for the same reason. - Okay.

So this one is still in the Pottery Barn theme.

They feed their chickens watermelon.

Now, this is like Crate & Barrel chickens.

- Okay, Crate & Barrel chickens. - Chicken & Barrel.

The thing I will say about this one

is it's not so much about the interior of the chicken coop.

This is about how your chicken coop seems in the backyard.

Like, oh yeah, that's a chicken coop. But isn't it cool?

I kinda get this a little bit.

It looks like a walk-in closet.

This is someone who understands what happens in a chicken coop.

You know what happens in a chicken coop?

- Learning. - (Rhett and crew laugh)

Besides learning, they just crap in there.

They either crap an egg or they crap feces.

- Those are the two things-- - (Link laughs)

Wait, wait, wait, wait. Do I need to give you an anatomy lesson?

- Chickens don't crap eggs. - I thought that until--

- I thought that until I was about eight. - (laughs)

I thought. I was like, why are we eating this white chicken crap?

Okay, okay. Okay, okay. So they put them in a school bus.

The school bus is there. The kids aren't.

- Put some chickens in there. - They can come and go...

- Genius. - ...as they please up a ramp.

It isn't some hobbit door

that they have to unlatch with their beaks. Okay.

If you don't have chickens, maybe you've got fish.

- I have fish. - Well, for $750, Link,

you could have your fish in a coffee table in the living room.

- That's tempting. - Talk about learning.

Hey, kids, come here and learn about fish.

Well, and then your Uncle Jeb comes over

with his steel-toe boots, and he's like,

(gruff voice) "I'ma throw my throw my heel up on your coffee--"

(imitates glass shattering)

You got fish everywhere.

- He does wear steel-toe boots. - He's like,

"Oh, is that dinner?"

Uh, yeah. This is a bad idea.

I would not be this person's friend.

Now, this person, on the other hand--

Whoa, wash your hands in the ocean.

I like being reminded where the water is going.

It eventually makes it into a fish's home.

It makes it into the ocean, right? Is that what happens?

So when you're doing a head-shower in the sink

and you're getting your face right down there on those fish,

they're freaking out, right?

- Or are they trying to eat your eyeballs? - I don't care.

I really like the idea of this.

Okay, people will do quite a bit for their cats.

Cat people tend to be crazy to begin with.

Oh my. I'm not agreeing.

- Officially, I'm not agreeing. - I think that most cat people

would say, "Yes, we tend to be the crazier ones."

- Right? I think you would. - Staying out of this one.

You'll do things like create a TARDIS for your cat.

Now, that is smart. That's cool. I mean, a carpeted-lined TARDIS.

I'm told that this is from Doctor Who.

Yes, it is a Doctor Who reference.

Now, the TARDIS is in focus, but the cat is out of focus.

- 'Cause the cat's on the move, man. - That's cool, though.

- That is cool. - I used to think

when they said "wall-to-wall carpet"--

I used to think that that's what it would look like.

When my mom was like,

"We're getting a house with wall-to-wall carpet,"

- I was like, "It's got carpet walls?" - Wow. It's gonna be warm.

- (both chuckle) - And then I'd go in there

- and it'd just be... - A letdown.

...floor-to-floor, as far as I could tell.

But really, I got it. Wall-to-wall. Yeah.

I thought it'd be a cat house. Okay.

This person, instead of just building a place for the cat--

They didn't make a home for a cat.

- They made their home a cat home? - I think there are 18 cats

- that this family owns. - Oh, gosh.

And when you think of a person's home that has 18 cats in it,

you think, I don't want to walk in there,

and I don't want to smell in there.

This person spent $35,000 to make the entire home

perfect for cats.

Well, if your cat likes a beach house theme.

I mean, this decor is dated big time. It's one of those places--

"Hey, we rented a beach cottage,

and we're inviting all the cousins."

And then you open the door and this is it.

Well, but no. It's color-coded,

because every place that a cat needs to jump on is green.

- Really? - You see that?

It's like cat parkour?

I dressed up like a cat once for this show.

(Link) I remember that.

And now we get to what you expect when you think extreme homes--

extreme pet homes.

- Rappers. - Dogs.

Everybody's got this in the recesses of their mind--

"What could I do to make my dog's life more extravagant?"

Give me one.

Well, you can build an invisible doghouse.

Just so you can walk out in your backyard and be like,

- "Where my dogs at?!" - (both laugh)

Where my doghouse at, you know what I'm saying?

What kind of dog wants to run at full speed in his backyard

- and keep hitting his own house? - (chuckles)

- Yeah, this is a bad thing. - Like, this is not considerate.

It's a bad thing for a dog. First of all--

- Give me another one. - They're colorblind.

Oh. And houseblind, in this case.

This dog has a Japanese-style pagoda.

Now, when I first saw this dog,

I thought he was lifting his leg and peeing on his pagoda.

- (chuckling) But that is his tail. - That's his tail.

But here's the funny thing about a dog.

He probably would do that without batting an eye.

Right. When he first saw it, he would think,

"This is something for me to pee on,

not for something for me to live in."

But that's how they mark their territory.

- That's how we know it's his pagoda. - Oh.

I pee on the corners of my house.

And you say it out loud on the Internet.

- (chuckles) - Give me another one.

- This is a Victorian-style home. - That's a dollhouse.

I think the dog is not home at this point.

Well, where does the dog get in there?

I mean, we talking like a rat-sized dog?

It doesn't seem functional; I will say that.

But it came up under "description of doghouses."

I think you might have also been searching "dollhouses."

- (chuckling) Oh yeah. D-O-G. - (chuckles)

- Now-- - Whoo!

- This looks like... - What?

...a dog that is doubling as the Grim Reaper.

But it is just a thing called DogEden,

which is a underground doghouse.

You can see there in the little cross-section.

When you put this thing in your yard,

the only thing that shows is this little mailbox.

Like, "Hey, Herb's got a low mailbox."

"No, that's my underground doghouse."

Because they benefit from the temperature regulation

of being underground.

It's cooler in the summer and it's warmer in the winter.

That's smart, but they're trapped in there.

I mean, you build that thing around the dog?

No, it doesn't look like it,

but they can get in and out of this thing really easily.

Dogs-- they can get in and out of things.

Now, this is a--

It looks to be a rendering, I will give you that.

But it is a celebrity brick estate doghouse

- that sells for $25,000. - That's ridiculous.

For the discerning dog that doesn't like vinyl siding.

- Every dog hates vinyl siding. - Every dog likes brick.

These dogs are not going traditional. This is very modern.

And, as you can see from the looks on their faces,

they know that they're modern.

- Snooty. - It's very snooty.

The dog in the front's got one blue eye. That's very snooty.

This is like a Venice Beach doghouse.

Oh! Now, this is cute and totally impractical.

Someone's gonna hitch up to that,

and that dog's gonna be in for a rude awakening.

(chuckles) Yeah, and he's got his food and water bowls there

on the little hitch part.

And then when you take your dog camping,

you just put him on the back of the actual camper.

Pull that thing down the highway at 75 miles an hour?

I'll tell you, that smile will go away real quick.

- Okay. - Mmm, now we're getting into it.

Hot tub. Bone-shaped jacuzzi?

That house looks to be seven, eight feet tall.

What kind of dog lives in there? I would be embarrassed.

I'd be embarrassed to have this in my front yard.

You can see that they've got this in their front yard.

I think people would think, "Oh, they let their kids

live in another little house next to 'em."

- Guest house. - No, that's for my dog.

He's got his own pool, shaped like a bone.

(both laugh)

And Paris Hilton-- she's known for being a little extravagant.

She has a $325,000 home for all her little dogs
