Well my landlord came by with the Orkin man and I asked her about the pet deposit.
(Cornbread was locked in my room and luckily kept quiet)
She said that before I get the animal I need to pay the deposit and provide records that it's up to date on all of its shots. Also there are weight limits. I said it's a cat so weight limits shouldn't be an issue. Then she said, "Oh then it needs to be declawed or defanged or whatever it is you do to cats. I don't really know what all is in the policy. I'll get you a copy of the policy."
That has me worried. I hope she's just mistaken about that but if cats are required to be declawed then I'm definitely going to challenge that. Shouldn't be hard to get a note from the doctor that says that's actually animal abuse. Especially since even the humane society and ASPCA say so as well.

Gonna have to call the vet to get a quote for how much all of this will cost.
Still, I can't imagine the policy requires cats to be declawed. That'd just be bonkers.

@7 @Loki @coin @dave @echo @emma @m0n5t3r @nik @nobu @p @tomey @Flick @tangleofsnakes @lottev @dew_the_dew @alyx @lewdthewides @internetfreak @m0n5t3r @wildgoose @lanodan @Beekeeper @xianc78 @pops @get okay. Well, yeah, it's in there. They don't require proof tho.
Also, for everyone mad at my landlord, she didn't make these rules. She just works here. I doubt she'll really care either way.
They don't require proof of it tho and I doubt they'll inspect his paws. If I'll ask the vet and when she says no and why if they ask I'll just give the vet's answer. I doubt it'll be that big of a deal.
Looks like I will have to get him neutered tho
