We allow dogs/pets in our units and this is the one flooring that I have found stands up very well to even the big furry friends.Depending on what the shape of the cabinets is in both the kitchen and bathroom, and whether or not they are stock size, I would consider keeping the boxes and buying new doors.  

There are 2 parts that need to be ordered and he informed me they will take 3 days to come in since they don't have any on hand (it's winter so they must be low on stock).I provided the tenant with space heaters and they said they temperature was comfortable.
