Try to keep it short as possible (it’s long)
I have a cat that me and my now ex girlfriend got together (her name is Nebula)
We got her in 2020 and like a week after we got her my gf left me for someone else, the only reason I bring that up is that during the cats “formative years” I was the only one there with her so she grew very close to me.
Me and my gf had an apartment together, she left, and I was left with Nebula and also my gfs male cat Calypso. For about 4 months.
Eventually me and my gf worked things out and she moved back in and we dated up until about 3 weeks ago. (So a few years)
So she’s leaving me again and here’s my question.
My ex is allowing me to take Nebula when we separate.
Nebula is very attached to me, she sleeps with me, will wake me up for work pawing at my face or back because she wants attention, she knows when I’m about to be home from work etc. Even when things were good with me and my GF Nebula 80% of the time would stay with me (me and my gf have been staying in separate rooms for a year). Nebula has a very strong connection with me.
So I love this cat & I want to take her, but Nebula has also grown very close to Calypso the male cat, and Nebula does also like Anna (my ex)
I guess I’m just curious whether my cat Nebula would be happier with me alone, or happier with Anna (ex) AND Calypso?
There’s obviously no scientifically correct answer to this ridiculous question I’m just curious what you think would be the best outcome for my cat Nebula?
