[Woogie Man]

This all sounds pretty heavy-handed of the new owners. Since so much was done by the previous owners to accommodate animals, I would guess that you're not the only one upset. If the new rule can be enforced, I wouldn't be surprised to see a mass exodus there (maybe that's what they want). You would have to ask yourself if this would still be your dream home if all the animals and animal lovers were gone. Why not let this play out for a bit to see what happens. You may have some legal recourse. At least you have a fall back plan by letting Pokey stay with your parents. I personally wouldn't want to live in such a place and would look for a way to get out of the lease without paying a penalty if that's what it came down to. Good luck with your decision...
