As someone who rents our previous two places out (at cost, don’t shoot me) cats are by far the worst. Dogs might chew on things and be generally destructive, but there is no way to get cat smell out of a place quickly. Even if the cat doesn’t actually piss on the floor, just that lingering litterbox smell takes months to fade in my experience.
Cats are crepuscular, which means they’re most active at dusk and dawn.
I’ve had indoor cats for 19 years, and most of the time after the kitten phase, they basically slept through the night.
A cat might get up for midnight snacks or get the zoomies every now and again, but adult cats sleep up to 16 hours a day so they really shouldn’t be up all night.
This sounds like someone that has never seen what cats can do to a property when the owner doesn’t take care of them.
Piss drenched carpet and moldy walls are a pain in the ass to fix.
You ever seen what half-arse parented kids will do? All of the above + holes and pest infestations
If you don’t like what the kids can do, wait until you see what the grown-ups can accomplish.
Grew up low income in a comission area, currently live next to a halfway house i’m wellllllll aware
when it smells like cat piss, but they have no pets
Hey, drugs are expensive.
I worked retail for many years and I consider children pests as well
That’s how onr apartment of mine got flooded. Kid 2 floors up was playing with the plumbing

If you run into the issue again, an enzyme cleaner works quite well in my experience. Nature’s Miracle makes a decent one, I’ve had to use it before
When the owner takes care of them too. I’m sure their downstairs neighbors disagree on what the cat does all night.
… oh, wait, the post was about the day, they may agree on that.
Sleep?
