Force landlords to accept common household 'pets' as many uk residents have one.

What the petition asks
Many landlords do not accept pets but when we live in a country where many residents own a dog or cat, it seems a little silly to deny a large portion of families property. It would be a fair compromise for landlords to add a 'pet fee' to cover any potential damage to the property.
Pets are apart of the family and shouldn't be excluded or put into a position where they become a burden for a family desperately looking for homes which allow pet's and there honestly isn't many of them that low income families could afford.
