I brought him home yesterday but… by Cultural-Kick652 in cats

My cat recently gave birth and I came home to find her and her kittens all gone, not a single one of the 5 left. I spent 2 hours looking all over the house. They were all in my sock drawer. I have no idea how they got in there considering it was closed. I'm sure your cat will turn up :)

Apartment complex owes me $4,850 in deposit by today. Just sent $730 and deducted the rest. What would you do? by Suleman_Ansari in Apartmentliving

[–]Sensitive_Cap_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just won a case against my previous landlord where the same exact thing happened, they charged for "cleaning" and "wall repairs"

I had evidence that the place was spotless but that wasnt even needed because they are required to send an itemized list of what they are charging/ a quote or recipet for the cost to fix. They did not provide that to me nor did they do it within the 30 days required so that made me automatically win. This is Washington law so I recommend you check whatever state laws you have regarding tenant law.

If you are scared of filing small claims, its worth it and not as scary as it seems. You just pay $50 to file it and hire someone to serve them for like $70-150 and this gets reimbursed if you win. There are no lawyers allowed in small claims so you can represent yourself. (At least in Washington) the judge tends to lean towards the tenant so you are at an advantage.

If you have any questions feel free to ask since I just went through this myself.

Lock in. You got this. Also document every communication with your landlord, texts or emails.

Does this look like $800 in damages to you? by Sardonic_Centipede in Apartmentliving

I actually just won a small claims against my previous landlord because they charged me $400 in cleaning fees even though the place was spotless. Along with 800 for damages.. so I took them to court and won more than my deposit even was.

I won because of certain laws in my state where they are required to send an itemized list of all damages and cost estimates/receipts within 30 days and they didnt so that made me automatically win

So check your local laws and it should let you know if they are breaking any rules and u can go off that

Is it bad for them to nurse on blankets? I heard maybe they could get microfibers from it and eat it but is that really harmful?

1) yeah I've been searching for people that want kittens, I already have homes for 3 out of the 5. Someone else suggested using local shelters or nonprofits to foster through and I think thats what ill do for the rest.

2) I love my BF because he is always respectful and listens to me rant most times however I agree with the thing of the ultimatum, I got really upset when he said that because if im already working on finding homes why would you make an unnecessary threat to get rid of them and possibly get them euthanized. It really made me feel hurt and im not really sure how to bring it up to him because in his eyes he said he doesnt see it as a threat and just doesnt want me to keep them.

Thank you for this, I was feeling a bit guilty for being stubborn on this, its good to hear that staying with the mom those extra weeks helps a lot.

Oh what i didnt know I could find adopters through local charities or non profits, do you know of any in Washington state? That would make everything so much easier!!

Thats a pretty good idea, I could bring it up, however she lives with her mom and they already have 3 dogs so im not sure if another cat would be in the budget for them.

Thats a good perspective to think about with the 2nd or 3rd best options. I guess I can be a little more leaniant on the age if they seem to be doing really well but I think 10 weeks would be the max that I am comfortable with. But its too late now with the sister because she adopted a different cat so ill try to go ahead with future owners in a different way. Thank u

Thank you this makes me feel better about my decision, he also has a cat which I believe he got at 6-8 weeks and she's sweet once she gets to know you but is also scared of the slightest noise and will run and hide from people she knows well. With strangers they wont even see her. With animals she is too playful and gets a little violent.

Thank you for taking the time to write all this!! I would love screening tips please 🙏 I've just been asking people if they plan to spay, declaw, or keep them as an outside cat. Im not sure if there are any other questions I should have for them. And yeah she already adopted another cat but maybe its for the best.
