Security Deposit & Pet Deposit - Can one supplement the other?
Scenario 1: The wood floors need to be refinished because dog urine has ruined them and the pet deposit doesn't completely cover the damage. Can part of the security deposit be used to cover the rest?
Scenario 2: You have holes in the ceiling and walls (obviously not from pets) and the security deposit doesn't completely cover the damage. Can part of the pet deposit be used to cover the rest?
None of these cases have happened to me, but I'd like to know how this works in case I'm unfortunate enough to be in a situation like this.
Thanks!
