If there is an age-related or medical reason the pet(s) cannot be neutered or spayed, please provide explanation in writing by a veterinarian. Failure to do so within 14 days following the date below will nullify this Agreement and the Tenant will not be permitted to keep these pet(s), pursuant to Clause 18 of the Tenancy Agreement.
