House Hunters Season 116 Episode 9 Cat-Friendly in Maryland

In the season 116 episode 9 of House Hunters, titled "Cat-Friendly in Maryland," viewers are taken on a journey with a couple named Samantha and Jamie as they search for their dream home in Maryland. They are on the hunt for a space that can suit not one but three feline friends, so finding a cat-friendly home is going to be the top priority.

The episode begins with Samantha and Jamie introducing themselves and their three cats to the viewers. Samantha is a teacher who works remotely, and Jamie is a software developer who also works from home. They both met in college, and since then, they have been dating for eight years. They both agree that Maryland is the perfect place to settle down, and they are excited to start their house hunting journey.

Samantha and Jamie's wish list includes a spacious home with plenty of room for their cats to play, a backyard where they can enjoy the beautiful Maryland weather, and a cat-friendly environment, which includes features like non-toxic plants. The couple also insists on finding a home close to the beach, as they frequently surf and enjoy spending time near the water.

Their real estate agent, Jen, begins the search by showing them a house with a beautifully landscaped backyard. Samantha and Jamie love the greenery, but they are not impressed with the interior of the house, as it is quite small and lacks the spacious feel they are looking for. The couple agrees to keep looking, hoping they can find a house that meets all of their criteria.

Next, they explore the quaint neighborhood of Cape Saint Claire. They quickly fall in love with the area's charm but are not impressed with the small size of the available homes. Undeterred, they continue their search, and Jen takes them to a house with a larger living space that is within their budget. The house has a lot of potential, but Samantha and Jamie are hesitant as it is located on a busy street, and they worry about their cats running into traffic.

As the search continues, the couple becomes more and more disheartened, primarily when they visit a home that had all the features they were looking for, except for the fact that it was listed way above their budget. Although the couple was initially optimistic about their house hunting journey, they are beginning to realize the difficulty in finding a cat-friendly home within their budget.

The episode ends with Samantha and Jamie keeping an open mind, determined to find their perfect cat-friendly home. Will they find a house that meets their needs, or will they continue to search for their dream home? You'll have to watch the full episode to find out.
