To be a service animal, your cat as to be able to perform tasks for you during the course of a regular day. This takes months,or years, of training and certification. Cats can be used as therapy animals and ESAs (emotional support animals). These animals are not looked at as service animals but are important to their owners nonetheless. Get an ESA letter from a licensed therapist or have your cat certified as a Therapy pet. There are several organizations that will do this. You will need to search online for one close to you.
