Jax Chinchilla Rescue
So we have finally decided to move. As much as we hate moving (especially during summer), we have so many problems where we are now. When we do laundry it makes our house smell like sulfur, our breaker box is constantly flipping breakers, our street always floods, our yard always floods, and it's just all getting annoying. Our landlord is great though and when our year was up he didn't make us renew our lease. He just said to give him 30 days notice and we were free to move whenever we wanted. Because of that, we have been waiting to find something we really liked, in the neighborhood we want. So I found an apartment in Riverside, which is where we want to be. It's an eclectic, historical neighborhood that I have always loved hanging out in. We are saving to buy a house, so our rent limit was $600 a month. I didn't think we would find everything we wanted, in the neighborhood we wanted in that price range. We specifically wanted central heat and air, a washer/dryer hookup, pet friendly, ceiling fans, a dishwasher, not to be in a large apartment complex and off street parking for 2 cars. Being bored I decided to look on Craigslist, and bam, I think I found our apartment!

The kitchen and bedroom are fairly small, but that is something we can live with. We have a small bedroom now, so it wouldn't be much of a change. It has ceiling fans, a tiled living/dining room (yay for no more vacuuming chinchilla poo and hay!), a ton of storage space, a completely renovated kitchen, and a washer/dryer already on site. I called the landlord and he seemed really nice. He said the chinchillas were fine, though he would charge us a pet fee for them (but not for our cat for whatever reason). He said he was afraid they would possibly freak out the other tenants? Either way, he said he would accept them which is great.
Keep your fingers crossed that the place looks as good in person as it does on CL. We really want to move by the end of the month to get out of this suck shack!
