If, in Landlord’s opinion, the pet(s) has injured or disturbed others, or has damaged property, Tenant must permanently remove the pet(s) within fifteen (15) days (or sooner in the case of an emergency) of receiving written notice, and failure to do so shall constitute a violation of the Lease Agreement, and may subject Tenant to eviction.
