I privately rent and have lived there for a year now. Property said the standard "no pets" but the agent did kind of hint that there is often leeway there. Me and my 9 year old DS would absolutely love a cat. Not thinking of a kitten but maybe a 6 to 12 month old cat or older from a sanctuary, where we know bit more about their behaviour.
Anyway first things first, have to ask the landlords. I will need to email the agent (who is lovely) and he'll then pass request onto the house owners. How can I word it to give me the best chance of a yes? I am more than happy to pay for a damage deposit, fumigation upon leaving the house, repairing/paying for any damage and of course would be de-fleaing etc regularly. Don't want my email to sound desperate and too-try hard. Any tips on wording the email? They've been great landlords/agent so far and want to keep relations good.
Sorry if this sounds silly but I really want to get it right so I have the best chance of a ltitle furry friend for myself and DS. Thankyou
