How practical is it to "emotional support animal" your way into a "no pets" apartment? (hexbear.net)

Let's say you have two cats and you'd rather go homeless than them.

I'm not even sure it would open up my search to include anywhere I'd be able to afford.

The only problem I have with this is I gotta get into a new place =NOW=. I won't dramapost here but I'm living in a hotel room that if I try to keep up with the rent for another month I'll be homeless, and I've been working at an amazon for a month and the month of december is the only 'proof of income' paystubs I'll get anywhere with it looks like... so I basically have a two week window to trick a landlord into taking me. And then I'll get to live to fight another day to find a job that won't cut my hours to nothing after they use me up for a rush.

Ahhh, i see. Sorry you're having to go through all this comrade. Looking at your link, i think you should be ok with disclosing it with a copy of the relavent statutes and forging the equivalent of an ESA Dr's note. Seems Cali has pretty loose requirements for ESAs.

That being said, if it gets a roof over your head, lie to the fuckers. You & yours having shelter matter more than hypothetical a lease violation later.
