Yes, they do. They are called "no-kill shelters" or sometimes sanctuaries, but they fill up fast. Often they can't accept all the animals people want to give to them, and they have to turn cats/dogs away. They aren't common because they are expensive to maintain and tend to fill up with animals that have medical conditions that people don't want to adopt.
But, FYI, they do exist.
OP, if it's just for a year, I think you might be able to do it. Just how allergic is your roommate? I was allergic to cats for a long time, but it was not a severe allergy so I can treat it with Zyrtec. Before I took the medicine, I would've been fine with a cat, as long as it wasn't getting its fur all over my bed or anything. Talk to your roommate and see what kind of compromises he/she is willing to make, if any.
