>>Technically, I'm sure I'm already in code violation for the number of animals, but no one's picked up on that yet!
No you're not. FL's state wildlife laws are preemptive. Local ordinances only apply to domestic animals, although you could potentially have to go to court and educate a judge who won't know any more about this than the local fuzz.
They can regulate what you build in the way of outside cages via zoning, but not what animals you keep directly. Local building departments can and do make the keeping of things like big cats impossible by makeing it against code to build the cages required by the state law, but it shouldn't be an issue for you.
Now, if you're renting, you have other issues.
