Document background
The Pet Agreement Form is a crucial supplementary document used in Malaysian residential leasing arrangements where tenants wish to keep pets in rental properties. This document becomes necessary when the main tenancy agreement either doesn't address pet ownership or requires a separate pet agreement. It aligns with Malaysian legal requirements, including the Animal Welfare Act 2015 and relevant local authority regulations. The agreement typically accompanies new lease signings but can also be added during a tenancy when a tenant wishes to acquire a pet. It provides detailed guidelines on pet ownership responsibilities, damage liability, maintenance requirements, and specific conditions that must be met to maintain the tenancy while keeping pets on the property.
