I would agree with Kay, contact the agency that your case manager
works for. Ask that they have someone else look for you an
place to live. Explain the situation.
I would not except the you can't have an cat. You should be able
to have the kitty for comfort, I would think with the almost 9 months
they have given you they can find a better place to go.
I would tell the case manager to keep looking. GIve some guidelines
as to what you need.
