I am writing in regards to a problem I am having with my landlord. We have lived in an apartment for over a year.Prior to moving in our landlord knew we had a cat and two birds.
Our neighbor has 9 cats and run around the apartment and such.
The other day one of our neighbors cats got out on the roof and entered our apartment and attacked one of our birds.
We got upset and called the landlord about this. She has decided that we all have to get rid of our animals or move.
We feel we are being asked to get rid of our animals because of our neighbors inability to take care of his own cats.
Can our landlord legally make us get rid of our animals? We do not have a lease. We have not had complaints about our animals.
What are my rights in this situation?
Sincerely,
Jason Woolard
Greenbrier county, West Virginia
