Or would I need to directly hire staff as permanent employees?

Make them understand that if you need to go through the entire eviction process that it will end up on their permanent rental record and it will effect their future plans. 

They are very efficient, permanent and avoid the heavy cost of actually installing the ducts throughout an existing structure.

Or should I just paint over it with a cheaper paint for the appraisal and then get a more permanent solution when he moves out?

The cherry on top of the cake is the interesting feature when combined with Google photos: With the google photos sync on my phone, the notifications with 12 sec videos get recorded on the phone and automatically synced to the unlimited google photos cloud, making them available permanently!

@Mike Cumbie, how about this scenarioI have a borrower who contacts me from one of my ads, from online or referred by a prior client who came to me the same way to purchase a homeSCENARIO: My borrower wants to buy a $500k home, so I get her completely approved in advance for her Max purchase power and issue an Approval letter for $625k and they have an Attorney Escrow Letter showing $20,000 of EMD They were thinking about working with their brother's, wife's, sister who a Realtor and who is willing to offer:     $0  Buyer Agent Realtor Rebate  They also met a nice Realtor at their kids' soccer game named Mike, who seemed like a good Realtor who is willing to offer:    $0   Buyer Agent Realtor RebateBut the Mortgage Broker wants to refer us to one of his Realtor Partners, who are Very Experienced, who have the same access to the same exact "menu" call the MLS and are much better negotiators than most realtors and who is willing to offer:  $12,500    Buyer Agent Realtor Rebate   Sorry, but the brother's, wife's sister who's a realtor and the nice realtor from their kids' soccer game are both...Out like the fat kids in 5th grade dodge ball!

A big fat 0 in housing expenses.

Do you just find one set for where you permanently live?

This way if the cat becomes permanent then you already have your fee to cover for damages. 2) You have this person move in, give you a hefty deposit for having this temporary cat, and specify a move out date in your rental contract.
