not to mention that maintenance people will be coming in and out of the apartment, usually without a pre scheduled appointment. I'd be upfront and ask the landlord to add a clause, or even suggest a pet deposit that you can pay over the course that you live there. My friend has to pay $500 per pet for her pet deposit, but can pay it out monthly over the span of her lease, and that is not renewable from year to year.
