Oooh, DNova, I hope you reconsider your idea and think what might happen it you're caught! Please don't think I'm trying to judge you because I have certainly "sneaked", too, but I always had cats in an apartment that allowed pets, but then didn't declare them to escape the larcenous fees most landlords charge. That way, if I was caught (only once - except once more in a no-pets apartment) then the only thing that would happen is that I would have to pay the fees anyway. But if you get caught in a no pets apartment, you will have no choice but to get rid of your cat - Florida laws probably vary from Texas laws, but here you have only 24 hours to get rid of the unallowed pet or face eviction. This is one of the major factors for people, especially students, surrendering their pets to the local shelters. The only time I was caught in a no-pets apartment was when Peaches moved in with us and we decided to keep her, but immediately started looking for another home, so that when we were caught that time there was little the landlord could do since we were going to be gone by the end of the week anyway.

Anyway, just a thought....
