Stop discrimination against renters with pets!
Renters should have the same right to keep a pet as homeowners. Stop landlords discriminating against renters with pets NOW.
Why is this important?
Right now, many landlords discriminate against renters with pets - making it near impossible for people with pets to find a home. Thousands of people in the private rental sector are being left with a stark choice: give up their beloved pets, or risk being made homeless.
The Government is beginning to develop new laws to make it easier for renters with pets to find a home - but these have been massively delayed, and it doesn’t help renters like me who are struggling right now. The law needs to change immediately to prevent the heartbreak of thousands of renters having to give up their pets at the whim of landlords.
If enough of us sign the petition, we’ll send a clear message to Michael Gove and the Government demanding that renters must NOT be forced to abandon their pets because landlords don’t feel like letting us keep them.
