Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Illinois

No pets

My question is this: If I am renting and my rental agreement does NOT include a ''no pet clause'', can the landlord, after having the pet for years, change his/her mind and tell the tenants that they have to remove the pet, MOVE, or be evicted?

If there is no clause in the lease precluding tenants from owning pets, he doesn't have a great basis for evicting anyone.

Yes, but he must still comply with the lease and the requirements for notice.
