Emergency Housing for Myself and Two Fur Babies

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Nathan, and I am looking for emergency housing for myself and my two cats.

I was previously kicked out by two roommates in December, when I started this fundraiser. Thankfully, I managed to find a room with an acquantance of mine at the last minute, and have been there since. Unfortunately, the conditions I was living in there were quite bad, and I was once again told to remove myself from the home on short notice. There was no reason given, other than "the owner needed the room back by the end of July". There was no flexibility being offered to me. I managed to move back in with my parents for now, but things can be tense, and it is not an environment I want to stay in for long.

Despite an ongoing job search, I still do not make good enough money to support myself in the current renting market, especially with added fees for two cats. To make matters worse, my current job has cut my hours in half, and claims they cannot offer me more at this time.

My cats are 12 and 13 years old, and the eldest is also a special needs cat. I can't surrender them, for their sake and my own, as I have had them both since they were old enough to leave their mothers. They mean the world to me, and I am all they have ever known.

These funds will help get me into an apartment, and cover costs for a short while to give me time to improve my working situation and income. I'm just looking for a place where I can be stable for awhile, to get my feet under me and save money. Every dollar helps, and any help is appreciated very much!
