Service Animals

It's a great idea, Smokey walked right in and volunteered to be my service cat, for only the cost of cat food. but I am a disabled and we are still fighting hard to get the right to have things like food and housing without draining resources from family and friends. All this money goes in, why should I ever go hungry or have to be homeless, or give away my pet cat Smokey, because I have to fight the grocery store, just to have equal access to my own home, where I pay rent? I have given away at least 17 wonderful cats, because I just don't have the means to take care of any of them. Now, yet again someone has said meow and purred their way into my heart, yes yet another pregnant cat, I can't let her starve this a poor neighborhood. When people in my neighborhood move it's often because they can't afford to pay rent, not because they have another place to go. Even people in more stable situation go around begging and borrowing pet food. I tried to explain to Duchess Rose Von Fürberger that my expenses significantly exceed my income, but she insists the can of tuna from the food bank is for her, and I am beginning to wonder if unlabeled corn in some of this tuna, is not contributing to the autoimmunity that makes it so hard for some of us to gain weight and stay healthy. When David died he was so skinny he looked like a concentration camp victim. They tried hard to keep weight on him, they gave him weight gain shakes but he stayed frighteningly thin. He could not say what was wrong, he went under a raft and drowned, when I was only 14. To me food with even a small amount of contamination seems to take more then it gives, causing malnutrition, rashes and thyroid problems. It aggravates my sensory disorder making it significantly harder to do basic tasks and tolerate noise. Cheep Cat food is so contaminated I should not even have it around, so I feed Duchess Rose Von Fürberger contaminated meat from the food bank instead. How can I support animal? I feel like I have to be a significant burden on others just to get what I need.
