Like why some apartments allow no tenants with pets. Living in an apartment building, some tenants around me absolutely fucking suck with owning pets. Allowing them to bark, wrestle and play loudly, letting them take dumps everywhere and not picking it up. People actually running with their pets with no leashes when leashes are required.

Yeah I side more with apartment offices that have balls to say no pets. Nobody wants the noise.

    “Pets are noisy, apartments should allow no tenants with pets”. A sincere question: what pet owners, desperately looking for a place to live, should do? Ditch their pets? Abandon them? Throw them out?

    One could extrapolate and state that “babies are noisy”. After all, they can cry loud. Lots of places don’t allow tenants with babies. What a mother with her baby looking for a place to live is supposed to do in such a situation where every landlord denies renting a place to her? What should she do, put her baby into adoption? Throw them out?

    Geez. This is one of the many reasons why the modern world is deadwalking towards the cliff nowadays…

      Unpopular opinion maybe, but if your housing or financial situation is not stable enough where having a pet could put you in such a difficult position, then you shouldn’t have a pet.

      I have yet to hear a baby cry so loudly that I can hear it through my walls. So far in the 3 years I’ve lived here, not one instance can I recall or know of babies crying that loudly. Kids, who’re able to talk and walk, they can be loud yes but they’re manageable. It’s lazy parenting that lets them be that way. Pets, generally, they’re going to be loud and they’re hard to control because nobody puts in the effort.

      Now I have a question back at you - did you read the part where I said that some owners fucking suck at being owners or did you selectively skip that part to make the comment that you’ve made? Learn to read, it’d help you sometime.
