How stupid is it that I put in my apartment application that I had to?
Well, first make sure the place you are applying takes pets. I am assuming you had to break the lease because you gained a pet. And remember the CAT is the king/queen of the house, so the cats likes and dislikes are important - wink wink. You can find the cat friendly apartment. If you put it on the lease, it shows honesty which no one can argue against. You will be a good feline parent knowing you had to move to somewhere pet friendly. Besides, those people in the world that do not like pets, well, they are just strange. And a cat is not going to destroy the place.
