Q: How do I move a pet into a new apartment?

• <div><p>Apartments come with strict regulations about what pets are allowed, so check before you sign a lease.

On moving day, it&rsquo;s best to designate a &ldquo;safe room&rdquo; or even a crate for your pet to help them get used to the new space. Keep everything they need in the safe room, and let them explore the rest of the apartment in their own time.</p></div>
