Caged Pets - Do you prohibit them?

[Bradley Bogdan]

Hi all,

Most of the landlords in my area have blanket no pet policies, which are rarely negotiable. Clearly, they're aimed at dogs and cats. Some are ok with caged pets (birds, hamsters, goldfish, etc.) while others are strictly no pets at all. How do these kinds of pets fit into your pet policy? Do you charge pet rent for them? Do you mandate renters insurance? Are you likely to even notice a guinea pig cage?

Curious to hear!
