Hello there. We are moving to Sydney in Feb08, and have 2 cats which will be coming over with us. I am concerned as it appears I can only arrange to rent a place when I am over there, and I am wondering how easy this will be with 2 cats. I have made some initial enquires and it appears that houses appear to be ok, but apartments generally have a no pets policy. Has anyone done this, and how did they find it? Also, any ideas on how long it usually takes to sort out a rental property? Many thanks

We rented the first and only rental house we ever looked at, along with our dog and cat!!!

Viewed the rental on the Wednesday and took it on the Saturday!!!

Good Luck C x

Most rentals wont allow pets but then it all depends on the owner of the property, the one were in wont but others I've looked at would allow small dogs (dont know about cats).

Apartments are a different thing, many here have balconies (at least one) which I guess would probably be dangerous for cats & dogs hence you will find some apartments will have a no pets policy (even for owners). Best thing to do is ask.

If the advert does not say "no pets" then apply for it telling them you have to house trained cats.
