Pets considered

Neutral Neutral

What it really means

The landlord might allow a pet — ask and they will decide case by case. "No pets" means not allowed (though you can still ask politely). Never hide a pet: it usually breaks the contract.

Chinese explanation

房东可能允许养宠物——需询问后逐例决定。"No pets"表示不允许（但礼貌询问也无妨）。切勿偷偷养宠物：这通常违反合同。

Example conversation

A: The advert says pets considered. B: Great — email them about your cat before you view, so no time’s wasted.

A：广告上写“宠物可议”。 B：太好了——看房前先发邮件说明你养猫，免得白跑。
