Keeping pets in high rise blocks

We do allow tenants to keep pets, however this is within reason and subject to these tenancy clauses. You must:

  • not keep illegal animals
  • keep your pets under control and ensure they do not cause noise or other nuisance to others by their behaviour
  • not use the premises for the purposes of breeding animals of any kind
  • ensure that your pets do not foul shared areas, any part of the estate or any other public area. If they do you must clean up after them

If any animal on your premises causes harm or nuisance to other people or causes damage to property, we will require you to remove it permanently from your home.
