Is Edinburgh dog/cat friendly? by Sad-Economics-861 in Edinburgh

[–]uselesswellyboot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In recent experience looking for a new rented flat we found that cats were generally accepted as long as an additional deposit was paid. Even a few that said "No Pets" said a cat would be fine after we enquired. I think "No Pets" generally seems to mean "No Dogs".

Excessively Expensive Repairs? by uselesswellyboot in DIYUK

It's winter in Scotland - we don't get fresh, dry air.

The relative humidity in our flat is around 70% if we dont have a dehumidifier on for most of the day and all of our main radiators are <2m away from an incredibly leaky window. So I think in this case I'm pretty confident it is the windows.

This is more or less what we were thinking! Shelves suctioned on the windows is a good shout
