UGH!!!! We got a new property manager a while ago. She saw me one morning feeding the outside cats and asked me why I was feeding them and she "wondered if it was a good idea." She said maybe we should take them to the pound to try and find homes for them.
I told her they were there when we moved in, and were there for a year before I started feeding them. So they weren't going to go away just because I stopped feeding them. I also told her it was incredibly unrealistic to think they find a home if I brought them to the humane society. Most of them are feral, and they are all very shy. I told her I wasn't going to stop feeding them. She could evict me if she wanted but I would still come back and feed them.
A week or two ago, she was showing an empty apartment, I feed them and then put Dylan in his stroller and started to walk away. She came out and asked if I was still feeding them. (DUH!) I immediately got defensive and said "Yes, it's not bothering anyone."
She said acted all authoritative and said it was bothering people. She told me to do it on the sidewalk behind the apartments.
The next morning I was walking behind the apartments, and the cats weren't following, then I realized I pay rent for my porch. I can feed them on it. Well she called my husband and told him we need to do it behind the apartments.
Don't I pay rent for my porch? He thinks she's going to try and kick us out if we don't listen. Can they do that? I wouldn't think they would want to, it would be a lot of work to put more people in this apartment. I'm so annoyed.
