    I wish. Wood and sometimes insulation. We have a hole somewhere that I can't find that's big enough for a fucking bird to get it, cause we had one a few days ago after a blizzard. My cielieng also leaks and I'm not on the top floor. It's really really really cheap and as far as landlords go, mine lives two hours out of town and offered to do grocery runs for us if we had to quarantine and gave us a mulligan on rent a few times. So it's a mixed bag.

      Fair enough, mine was in terf island so no leaks needed to have that dampness, good luck, hopefully you end up finding some other place cheap or find that hole, birds can be annoying as fuck, maybe talk to your upstair neighbours about the leak?

        The leak is possible caused by ghosts. Both the upstairs neighbor and I have gotten the landlord to send people to have a look at it. They fixed stuff, it came back. I guess this has been the trend for a very long time. Fixing anything permanently here would basically requires renovictons and we'd rather let the landlord bandaid it than that. This is only my second bird in three years and my cat handled em fine. East coast Canada here so pretty similar climate, less rain more just humid wetness or cold humid wetness of all things unless you put salt on it. Either way I'm actually okay with the place all things considered, the inconvenience is worth it for the cost, it's pretty spacious, has a nice back yard and I'd be paying triple for half the space otherwise
