Yes it may. You may want to check with them. Sometimes the management will still alow some pets, but review your lease first. You may even want to discuss this with a real estate attorney.

If there is no written pet policy, then I would think not. But if your pet is bothering the neighbors or destroying the apartment, then they might have a legitimate complaint. Best to contact a lawyer or get rid of the pet.

Depends on where you are. In Ontario, Canada, the law says that a landlord can't prevent an animal from living on the premises, as long as that animal doesn't cause a distrubance or damage.
That law overrides any lease. Every landlord wants to keep pets out to avoid the hassle, so they put it in the lease.... but it's not enforceable.
...but I don't know what the laws are where you live.

It depends on the contract, but once your apartment management finds out about your pet, you'll be asked to make a choice between keeping the apartment or keeping the pet. Really, then, the choice will be yours.

uh yeah, without a doubt. anything on the lease agreement you break is grounds for eviction. they legally will have any and all rights to do so but i guess if they're nice they might let you off with a warning but i would say most places will evict you and give you 30 days to leave if you break anything on the lease.

Only a really dumb owner has no pet policy in their contract. They always ask for a pet deposit for 4 legged animals and specifiy what is not permitted.
Double check that contract even if it was for month to month there would be something.
You can't violate a rule that isn't in writing on your contract or lease.

Of course it can! What part of "No Pets" do you not understand??
It's not "dumb owners" that restrict pets. As a landlord, I've had to deal with the damage that Fido and Fluffy do more times than I care to count. I got a BIG break on my insurance by banning pets so it was all down to simple economics. Keeping my costs down allowed me to keep rents reasonable.

Yes, if they say no pets and bring one in... Eviction is probable.

If its in your lease then I would guess so...youre breaking the lease. Unless you get rid of the animal...in which case Im not sure.
