My apologies for assuming all jurisdictions had similar practices regarding service animals. I have serveral friends that have been matched with animals for their disabilities (including ptsd dogs/calming animals, hearing assistance dogs, etc). I also have a friend that fosters/trains animals for those on the autistic spectrum. In all cases the procedure was as I described. Apparenlty it is more stringently controled here.

But my biggest concern is your abillity to care for an animal. It strikes me that you aren't in a position to be responsible for one. Yes, as said above, an adult cat comes with more reponsibilities than a kitten - the least of which is ensuring it is spade or neutered. Some cats need to be trained to use a litter box. While cats are loving pets, they take work to be kept as such.
