Landlord: Jon Gosselin Abandoned a Kitten in Dirty House After Eviction
Sad dad of eight Jon Gosselin's downward spiral is still going. Today, his old landlord Linda Eways tells Star that after he got evicted for missing rent payments, Gosselin left a poor, tiny kitten in his rural Pennsylvania house and booked it out of there. "What I found completely shocked and infuriated me," Eways says.
Eways claims Gosselin left the place a squalid mess and had no concern for the kitten, which allegedly belongs to his ex-girlfriend. Per Star:
"I showed up to take a look at the house after Jon was supposed to have been entirely moved out, and what I found completely shocked and infuriated me," Linda tells Star... Garbage and other debris were scattered throughout the house, while white walls and doors inside bore damage from Jon's dog. "I was so frustrated by the entire situation that I had to leave and give him one more day to entirely move."
Eways continues, "We called Jon and asked him about the kitten, and he seemed unconcerned, saying it belonged to his ex girlfriend Liz [Janetta], who left in September. He just left her there. It broke my heart, but we adopted her."
According to Star, Gosselin was renting to buy the $299,000 home, but by September, he was four months behind in rent. Eways took him to court for $5824.70, and he was evicted when he didn't pay.
Eways claims, "Jon never came up with the money and was squatting in our home for four months. It's a shame because we offered to make his payment plan as easy as possible. He would always laugh off any help and tell us that he had plenty of money and didn't need a mortgage, because he could have easily paid for the house in cash."
For his part, Gosselin says Eways claims are "not completely true." And in perhaps related news, Jon's ex-wife Kate and the kids are having a yard sale this weekend.
