Is my landlord allowed to request extra pet fees for November?

I recently signed a lease for a cozy one-bedroom in Kensington Market, but my landlord just asked for an extra $100 a month for my cat starting November. This wasn’t mentioned in the lease at all. Is this common practice? And can I negotiate this? Feeling a bit overwhelmed!
