Can I be evicted for violating my lease's pet policy? 

Yes, unless your pet is an assistance animal. Under Texas law, you can be evicted for violating any part of the lease agreement. Keeping any pet that is not allowed under the lease, even temporarily, may violate the lease. Violating the lease with an unauthorized pet can be grounds for eviction.
