Yes. Two cats. And the rent is arguably below market.

We are peak Silicon Valley right now.
"Basically I've got two renters that don't have opposable thumbs," Callisch said. "It's actually great. They're very quiet, obviously. The only problem is they stink up the place."
The rent is taken care of by 43-year-old Troy Good, who saw the studio as a solution to a pressing problem: what to do with his daughter's beloved cats, which he couldn't abandon but also couldn't house in his new apartment.
For $1,500, Good and his cats got a decent deal. An average studio apartment in San Jose rents for $1,951 a month, according to RentCafe. But the unit Good is renting has no kitchen, which could bring the price down.
"They definitely have the nicest cat apartment in Silicon Valley," said Good, a custom furniture designer. He recently started his own business designing and selling phone booths for offices with open floor plans, to give workers a quiet, private space to take calls.
Callisch pops into his granny unit, which he calls the "casita," every day to feed and play with the cats, Good stops by regularly and Amith visits on her breaks from school.
