California-->Davis Sq...help?!

[busylilbear.livejournal.com]

Hey everyone!
I'll be graduating from UC Berkeley next month and I'm planning to move to Boston. After ::extensive:: searching, I've absolutely fallen in love with Davis Square! Here's the rub: the same few places keep showing up on Craigslist, and most of them are awful.

Does anyone here know of an apartment opening up for 6/1?

Here's the details from my end:
*as close to the T station as possible... so less than a mile would be ideal
*cat friendly
*1-br (preferably), or studio
*laundry in building, heat included (ideally)
*parking would be awesome, but I can deal either way
*non-basement... it doesn't have to have a zillion windows, but I need SOME light, especially when adjusting to Boston winters! ;)
*I can pay up to $1200... although on a post-college budget, less is obviously better

If you do set me up with a place, I'm thinking some sort of compensation or homemade cookies would definitely be in order :)

Thank you guys in advance. I can't WAIT to move out there and experience all of the amazing stuff that everyone's been posting about on here!!

We have a studio apartment we need to sublet for June/July with the possible option to renew with the landlord. It's $1100 a month, a studio with a ton of light, VERY close to Davis. The apartment has a nook (perfect for a mini office set up) and a separate kitchen (decent size, cute hutch). Heat/hot water is included and our electricity and gas for cooking bills are always under $30. It's not huge, but my boyfriend and I have been able to live here for a while without feeling terribly cramped.

Also, reading your original list, cats are OK, it's a 3 minute walk from the red line, and there is laundry in the basement.
