Simply put, in your apartment you can lodge a pet, but you need to do it with some rules in mind. It's one thing when you plant an animal in your own apartment, and another when you live in a communal apartment. Here the rules are slightly different and the owner of the apartment is not only you, but also your neighbors. Here it is necessary to listen to their opinion. But the most difficult thing in keeping pets in living quarters is that you decide to move a rented apartment, and the animal is with you. There are some nuances that need to be considered.
In fact, if you conscientiously rent an apartment in the light of all the rules, i.e. conclude a contract, then such a question as the content of pets should be stipulated in advance. The contract should contain such an item, which will stipulate such a moment about animals. Be sure to review the contract. If you do not find such an item, this does not mean that in a rented apartment you are allowed to keep pets, and any.
If you decide to move or buy a dog or a kitten in the future, it will be obligatory to notify the landlord about it. If he agrees with this provision, then necessarily demand from him a document that will confirm that he is notified in advance about the contents of domestic animals and fully agree with this. Verbal consent in this case is not enough. If there are any disputes, then to prove that once the landlord told you "yes" will not be possible.
In an extreme case, if the landlord is against animals, and you really want to have a pet, you can buy yourself a very small animal, for example a parrot, a hamster, a domestic rat or a guinea pig. To keep such animals in living quarters, a special permit is not required. Even to notify the landlord is not necessary.
If all the nuances concerning the permission to keep animals in living quarters, and in this case in a rented apartment are stipulated and fulfilled, it is necessary to know that there are some exceptions to the rules that must be taken into account and know.
- For example, if you have settled a kitty or a dog in your own apartment, you have received permission from the landlord, but after a while it began to interfere or burden the neighbors, you can legally be required to get rid of the animal or move out of a rented apartment. Neighbors may not like the noise, barking, filth, or attempts to bite one of them.
- If you decide to get yourself not just an inoffensive and small dog, but a fighting boy, you will need not only the permission of the landlord, but also additional special permission. This is due to the fact that these dogs are quite serious animals. This solution will give some peace of mind to you and your neighbors.
- It is necessary to know that the homeowner's permission to keep the animal in the apartment applies only to a particular animal. If suddenly a dog or cat dies and you decide to buy yourself a new pet, then you need to get an additional homeowner's permit that will agree with your terms. In this case, the first permit is simply canceled.
- If you already have a pet, living in a rented apartment and the landlord has already given his written consent, he can not refuse to buy you one more. If you live in small pets, where the permit does not apply, the landlord must provide written consent for the purchase of the dog or cat.
- In addition, to forbid you to keep the animal from a certain period of time, the landlord can not, if you already have a pet and the landlord is notified about it.
In addition, the most important advice for pet owners is that it does not matter in which apartment you live your own or removable, you must remember that having taken a dog or a cat, you take responsibility for keeping the animal in its pure form. Pets should not in any case deliver discomfort to neighbors from their presence. If you decide to take a cat or dog for maintenance for a while, then remember that pets are able to leave piles that will bring a lot of unpleasant emotions to residents in the neighborhood. Do not be lazy to clean up for your pet, it can avoid some problems.
