Well the landlord is now on the case, and has a call in to the owner to see how they want to deal with this. They will probably have to dig the whole thing up, but I imagine they will at least want to wait until it's thawed.



The landlord thanked me for being "down to earth" about it, so there's my reward.

I was just trying to be silly...

I hope your trials and tribulations don't last long.

Maybe they can hook you up to the sewer system. From a landlord perspective, not having to deal with a septic system would be a big bonus. Septic systems have to be treated right, and rentals are kind of notorious for not being treated right. If I were a rental property owner, I'd pay for a sewer connection.

UT sewer problems? Can't think of anything worse in the winter.

It was -7F here this morning. So I have a barn cat because some asshole threw out a perfectly good cat. She has been here since October. I have dog breeds that hate cats so no way she can live in the house. To be fair they were here first. I noticed that day by day she was getting huge. Skip fixed her up a dog igloo inside the barn with straw and a blanket over to close the door.

She has 4 kittens right now maybe more coming . I had to warm up two on my car seat. {You can fry eggs on a PT Cruiser car seat warmer] So they got warm went back to mom and then I covered her with an old LL Bean down coat. I gave her some watered down milk and she is purring and happy.

I just want to say some people sure are assholes and this kittie deserved a better home than my barn, but that is all I can do right now.

This kitty was lucky she crossed your path, after her experiences with human assholes. Your kindness will come back to you. And maybe one (or more) of those kittens will be a fantastic mouser. Check for extra toes; that's the mark of a good mouser.
