Support animals with no pet policy
I have a strict no pet policy for my units. I used to allow small pets but a couple irresponsible tenants allowed there animals to damage carpets, walls, etc. so I got out of the pet business. Recently, a tenant moved a cat in without my knowledge, claiming it is a support animal and is in the process of getting the paperwork to back that up. I was alerted to the cat by another tenant who I refused to let bring his pet. How would you handle this situation?

A legitimate support animal is NOT a pet. So if she's got the paperwork you've got yourself a cat now dawg.
