@thebaywindowgirl@RolloTreadway There's a Housing (Scotland) Bill going through Scottish Parliament at the moment that includes the right for renters to own pets.
Hope it happens. Seems so unfair for people at present, and if it works up here there could be pressure for elsewhere.
(sorry, I realise this is a bit of a tangent, just thought it was a related nice thing)
@eclectech@thebaywindowgirl It certainly ought to happen. A cat to keep me company would help a great deal, and I wouldn't mind giving my landlord a little extra deposit to cover possibly damage.
@RolloTreadway@thebaywindowgirl Yeah, the idea that you have to own your home in order to have a pet is properly messed up. Tenants are responsible for looking after the property anyhow.
@eclectech@RolloTreadway I think a similar thing was mooted for England and Wales, but the Tory landlord MPs in Westminster have pissed all over the Renters’ Reform Bill.
