1. This is an excellent resource guide for

renters with pets.

I'm saving this to my bookmarks.

Thanks for sharing this.

2. We just took in another cat...

The renter next door to our house didn't want to take it with...pretty cat, de-clawed, REAAALLY pissed of at being in the same place with our other 4 illegals.

4. Isn't it heartbreaking to know that there are people out there who would move away and just leave

their pets behind to fend for themselves....and perhaps perish?
A friend of mine just took in a kitty who was abandoned in just that way.
Leaving my furbabies behind like that is beyond anything I can imagine myself doing...

3. Great advice. As a landlord AND a pet-lover, I agree with all points.

I accept pets in all of my rentals, but I am much pickier about them than I used to be after getting burned a few times.
It is very disheartening and expensive when someone lies to you and does not take responsibility for their pet(s).
I myself am a renter at the present and I have 2 cats and 2 dogs. I was able to rent because I am very responsible, my pets are clean and well behaved,
and I paid a hefty deposit for them, only partially refundable.
