CALLING ON THE INTERNET MORALITY COMPASS
Okay here's the situation, I have a cat, he has made some pretty bad claw marks on some walls and things. I'm not supposed to have a cat, but the old management literally never checked on anything so we've been getting away with it for literal years. The place recently got sold and the new management is coming in in a couple weeks to check for maintenance issues and "lease compliance"
Should I:
Just get the cat out of the house and try to mask any damage, try to erase his existence crime scene style?
-OR-
Pre-emptively email them, explain the situation, offer to pay pet deposit and hope they're understanding about it and don't evict us or someshit
