Dogs galore tenant

Any landlord who has had the dilemma of whether to let to a tenant with pets needs to feel sorry for the poor landlord who ended up with this tenant.

The tenant in question Kindred Hummer wasn't content with one & a cat. Oh no! She was allegedly found with 50 cats, 10 dogs and a squirrel. A squirrel!?

Property Hawk has said in the past that letting to tenants with pets can be a smart move.
We're not sure about allowing a tenant to set up a small zoo. The landlord unsurprisingly evicted Hummer but was still left massively out of pocket with legal fees and clean up costs.
Commenting on the case he advises:

“I would just warn other landlords to always visit the tenant's previous address before you take them on.”
