Make it illegal for landlords/agents to discriminate against you for having pets

Closed 165 signatures

What the petition asks

Too many animals are put up for adoption because the landlord, letting agent and property managers won’t allow them in the homes they are letting.
A sensible solution would be that tenants have to pay a ‘pet deposit’ which would cover any damages caused by animals living in the home.
