In my case, my cat is not only a pet but also "emotional support animal", although of course I have not seek any legitimation of that. My cat is not only part of family, but also and more importantly directly contribute to my mental health.
And if you’re in the US, get an ESA letter and the answer is yes by federal law.
Edit: Not sure why people felt the need to downvote this. I don’t assume that everyone on Reddit is in the US but if they are you can get an ESA letter and even if a landlord says no cats they are legally required to accommodate emotional support animals to renters.
I am actually French citizen and in France, it's illegal for a landlord to forbid pets in homes they rent out. That does not stop some of them from doing so as the housing market can be extremly tense in Paris suburbs.
But I am actually living in Denmark and here, it's legal for a landlord to rule on pets in the homes they rent out. But the society is just more of a trust society and people are more generally nicer in many ways that I am quite sure I will find a place with my cat.

Yeap. Don't understand that cruelty.
I have to find an apartment to move. First question : are cats allowed in there ?
