The Housing Development Board has officially announced that the ginger cat sleeping on your shoe rack is now your legal landlord.

Recent legislation confirms that any feline occupying a corridor riser for more than three hours gains full ownership of the adjacent unit.

These apex predators have successfully transitioned from vermin hunters to high-society property moguls who demand premium treats as a form of rent.

Residents are warned that failing to scratch the "Landlord’s" chin will result in immediate eviction or a strategic hairball in their expensive sneakers.

"Wah lau, I pay conservancy charges every month, but this fat cat just stare at me until I feel like I'm the trespasser," said local resident Tan Ah Kow.

"Every time I come home, he just meow once and I automatically give him my lunch, siao liao, he really the boss of this block man."

Authorities advise citizens to bow before the "Void Deck Overlords" to avoid being hissed out of their own living rooms.
