If you have signed a lease then you are not likely going to have a choice.... sorry. The only thing I can think of is if you know anyone who can care for your cats until you can pay the deposit or move.... or win the lottery.   |

Does the rental/lease stipulate a pet deposit?....I already know you do not want to give up your fur babies, & they are adorable!....I would either try to come up with the money somehow or try to find another place sweetheart...I'm sorry this is happening, most people who rent out their property "know" people love their pets and take advantage of the situation, the deposits are outrageous not to mention they are not refundable, that's a lot of money not to get back if you decide to move, of which they should not be allowed to do this....Did they notify you that they would be stopping by your place while you were gone? By Law they are required to give you a notice....and not only that but are supposed to do their "so-called inspecting" while you are there at home.....I hope every thing works out for you, I've had to pay outrageous fees for my *Girls* in the past, my family has cringed when I told them, but I paid it because my *girls* are every bit worth it to me....Best Wishes~.....T/C  |

Talk to your landlord and see if you can make it in payments. That's how I have done in the past and most of them will work with you.  |

...be a pain for your landlord and get a politician involved.
This doesn't sound right or legal.

when we moved into the apartment they asked if we had pets and we both signed a statement saying we didn't. They didn't become aware of them until now. yesterday I was changing and I heard someone come into my apartment but didn't see anyone. I walked out front and the pest control guy was there and asked me if we had any pest problems and I said no and he said okay he had just sprayed the kitchen. Then this afternoon I find the notice on our door saying to come to the office to discuss payment for our 2 cats. I'm trying to find laws to help me out with this, but I am not having any luck yet.  |

If you have any depression issures and see a Dr. you may be able to get a letter saying its his medical advice you have a pet. I know a lady who lived in a low-income baised apartment. They found out she had animals (she wasn't allowed because of same deposits & lease) (down-payments- extra a month) So she went to her doctors and he wrote a (script) for her to have one. (this may only help for 1 pet/ sorry If nothing else it may buy you some time. |
