What is the name of your state?
California
I have been living in my apartment for four years....
when I first moved in, the official policy was "no pets", however, the apt. manager said that a cat was ok and did not charge me a pet deposit......
Two years ago, I got another cat and then another 2 last year (total of 4).
The apt. manager has known about all four cats, and has never said a word about them, nor was any mention of them included in the last lease I signed in Aug. of 2004..... even though the pet policy was changed about 1 year ago, and pets are now allowed.
I just received my new lease, and though there is no pet policy written into the lease, the manager had attached a yellow sticky note which said my four cats were not allowed and that I must pay a deposit of $150.00 per cat and show proof that they are all fixed.
Is this in any way legal??
Thanks for any help on this......
