I'm with you on this matter. Living in college apartment complexes is like living in a minefield of poo. People want these cute, cuddly animals, but don't want to clean up after them. I can only imagine people getting termed for letting their dogs poo everywhere, haha
While I will miss my cat terribly, living with up to 7 strangers wouldn't be good for him. I just think that even if pets were allowed, I wouldn't bring him for his sake. I just don't trust people enough to trust they will be good to animals.
