Getting an Apartment

I'm going to make this short and sweet so no one has to read a ton. The house I live in is being sold and we’re scrambling to get money together to get a new apartment. None of us work jobs that we can afford to save money from, while also paying rent at our current place until it gets sold (in addition to food and stuff like that). We’re trying so very hard, but it seems like life just isn’t on our side right now.

Hours at work are short, we’ve been living on ramen and the McDonald’s dollar menu as much as we can in between paychecks, it’s been awful. Not to mention we can’t abandon our cat if we don’t have a place to live and we have to find an apartment that will let us keep her. (My dog of 15 years passed away a few months ago and I can’t go through having to let another pet go.) There’s a place we really want to rent, but the deposit plus first month’s rent is close to $1100, which is basically what we pay where we are now. 

So, I wouldn’t do this unless I needed to. Thank you, all of you wonderful humans. I don't expect much, but any little bit helps. <3
