Help Us To Get Into Senior Assisted Housing

My husband and I are living in a trailer that is in bad shape and have some major problems.  We have medical problems where we need to live in a place that is able to help with them and save for us to live in.  We have been looking into Senior Assisted Living now for the past couple years and the cost is up to get into and would take all our income and leave us with no money for ourselves and pay off bills once we move out here, we need to move as soon as possible because other reason as well.  We have 4 cats that older ones who will need good homes as well.  I don't want to give them up, but most assisting living will ether allow one or none at all.
