Renting With Pets

Renters, please don't despair. Finding pet friendly housing is not impossible. With some effort and resolve, you can find pet friendly alternatives and keep your pets.

Some humane societies and rescues discriminate against renters. Is it humane to keep a cat for a prolonged time in a rescue or shelter or even to prefer euthanasia over placing a cat with someone who rents and MIGHT not be able to keep the cat if they have to move? Now there are some online resources for renters that may help prevent "I'm moving and my new apartment won't allow cats". Here are some resources to help:
