C'ville Hates Cats

I've been searching for a place to live for almost 8 
weeks, and no one in this town seems to allow
cats.  I've never had cats until this year and find 
them to be clean, odor-free animals, unlike dogs, and 
don't run 'round breaking things, like dogs do.  Ironically,
I've always been a dog person until this year.

So what's the deal C'ville?  Why do you hate cats?
What damage can a little cat do to your home?  I've 
had "Sampson" since December and no catastrophies 
have occurred in my apartment.  The furniture is still in
tact.  Nothing has been broken.  No waste matter has been 
deposited on the floor.  Nothing but unconditional love
has developed between he & I.  

What a tragedy it will be to 
have to return him to the SPCA when I have to move in August
just because you won't allow me to keep such a quiet & loving
creatur in your dwellings.

David,

	Where have you been looking?? My daughter lives at the
Westgate Apartments. She has a cat (I think she does pay a
little extra). In fact, when I go over there, it seems like
there's a cat sitting in every window sill!

Dear cat owner,

Management Services Corporation (MSC) allows pets in almost all
of their apartments/townhomes/houses.  Call them up, I'm sure
they have something for you.

David,
	I understand your dilemma.  I just got back from home where I had to
leave my cat for the summer because the place where I am subletting has
a rather nasty pet policy.  I too have found cats to be the perfect
companions.  You can even train them to the toilet if you want and they
don't urinate on the floor to get attention like a lot of dogs I know
do.   The suggestion about MSC is a good one.  I am moving into one of
their townhouses in Aug and will get to retrieve Kiki from home.  Also
if you want somethng a bit farther away Four Seasons allows pets for a
small fee.  Keep looking and good luck!!

Cathy

Nonsense!  Charlottesville does NOT hate cats.

Many of our most distinguished residents have enjoyed felinus
domesticus on many occasions.  Generally with stir fry
vegetables and their choice of steamed or fried rice.
