Perry (P) and his neighbor Alice hated cats. In 1990, they agreed and covenanted that no cat would be kept on either of their residences. It expressly stated that the covenant would run with the land and would bind and benefit future owners. They even properly recorded the covenant. When Adams passed away Davis (D) got the residence for life. D kept six cats on the property. P sued D for injunctive relief to enforce the covenant. P got the injunction and D appealed.
