| Renting with pets can be challenging, but it shouldn't be. |
As many pet owners know,
it can be downright hard to find suitable rental accommodation that allows for
pets. Inability to find pet-friendly accommodation is one reason that some pets
are relinquished to shelters, severing the human animal bond and leaving the
pet to an uncertain and unhappy future.
The Australian Companion
Animal Council (ACAC) has teamed up with the Australian Veterinary Association
(AVA) and the Australian Small Animal Veterinary Association (ASAVA) to produce
brochures on Renting
with Pets and Tenants with Pets, along with Pet Application &
Agreement Forms.

This is a big issue – not
just for animals (for whom the stakes are very high), but for people as well.
