I once had a woman tell me she would "share the rent" with a ferret. The ad clearly stated no pets, but she did not see her ferret as a pet, more as a life partner. She said flat out that it would pay rent and she would be sharing the room with a "friend".

She seemed nice enough, but seemed totally incapable of understanding that a ferret was a pet. Would respond to- "you can't move in because there are no pets allowed" with- "I don't have any pets", as she held the ferret in her hand. It was like we were speaking a foreign language, absolutely no comprehension.

There were a lot of awkward pauses in our conversation, and a lot of sideways "is this woman serious?" glances between my friend and I. Finally we had to go with- "Well, we have several interested parties, and will let you know when we made a decision", just to get rid of her.
