Jacksonville, FL asked in Landlord - Tenant for Florida

Q: Can all tenants with separate agreements with owner be evicted by owner telling one person they have two weeks to leave?

I and three others moved in separate times with separate agreements with owner who also resides at his home, he texted me that all members of the household have two weeks to leave but no one else. The reason he wanted us gone is because we complained about the living condition, his cats pee everywhere and there has been consecutive months where he wouldn't change the cat litter box and that's our really only issue besides him not feeding them.

None of us are on a lease.
