Straight from the gossip himself (our maintenance man) I have the hottest news around and about the apartment building.
To start with the building is 2ish stories. 3 really. The building sits sideways so that the front doors of apartments 1-6 face the side of the neighbor's house. Then there are 2 on the back of the building situated in the alley. We are on the top left if you face the front of the apartments. Now having painted a picture for you I can begin.
The first hot news story is that apt 2, which is located on the first floor and under the apartment beside us, was broken into not long ago. Like maybe 2 weeks ago. Oh joy. Like always I was home. And the worst part is I saw one of the guys. I heard what sounded like loud knocking at 3am one night and a thin blonde haired man pacing around downstairs. He looked to be in his early 20s. I only saw him for a second and being that I didn't recognize him I turned my outside light on. Evidently all that did was help them to see while they cleaned the neighbor out. I just thought it was yet another drunk college kid beating on the door thinking their BFF still lived there. That has happened a couple times over the years. And I even thought about going out there and seeing what the ruckus was but I'm glad I didn't. They could have had weapons. And this isn't an isolated incident. A couple of years ago this same apartment was broken into. I have no idea who or whatever because I didn't see or hear any of that one. It's just odd that it keeps happening to that one. None of the others. And the police don't bother knocking on doors to see if any of us heard/saw anything. And they are pretty bold to break in to an apartment with the upstairs neighbor's living room light on. And how did they know that they weren't home? I don't feel safe here. But that is nothing new. I haven't since the first break in. But we can't afford anything else.
And then.........................I am told that crazy cat guy down in one of the alley apartments has more kittens on the way and some of his cats have died and he is keeping them in the freezer. This man has too many cats. They are all semi-feral and sickly. He can't even take care of himself much less 15 or so cats. And none have them have ever seen a vet so they aren't spayed or neutered. He always has pregnant cats and kittens. It's disgusting. I just emailed animal control. And if you are going to whine about the possibility of these cats being put to sleep then move along. I assure you I do not care about that. I care about the safety and well being of MY pets. I don't want my dogs going outside and being in proximity of these purring bundles of disease. Or my cats accidentally getting out for a few minutes while I fill the bird feeders. These cats of his could be carrying rabies, feline HIV, feline leukemia, worms, fleas, ear mites, and a few others. I have enough things to worry about without having to worry about my pets being contaminated.
