Hello I'm going through a hard time right now. I'll have to say a little bit about my past first. I use to have a cat and she became very sick and died. I had to leave her at my dad's house since my new place didn't accept cats, and no one gave her the medicine I bought for her condition and just let her out to die.
After years of mourning her loss I finally was able to get a new cat. I've lived with my mom for 2 years now. She has a male cat 8y. Her friend gave her 2 new kittens for free from 2 different littlers and brought one home to surprise me, because I was so sad about my cat passing away.
My husband had problems with seizures recently and he is now in a different state with his family getting treatment. I now need to move to be with him.
My cat has bonded with the male and her sister. It has been less than a year they've been together. About 8 months. I also have a dachshund that she cuddles with. My cat has also bonded with me. She sleeps on my bed and kneads on my lap. She doesn't act as friendly towards my mom.
I just don't know if I should separate the cat family or if her imprinting on me will cause her to become sad if I'm not around anymore. Just when I finally had the cat hole in my heart starting to fill up, it now needs to be ripped open again. I will miss her terribly if I leave her and I don't know when I'll see her again. I'm afraid she'll forget me or my mom will never let me have her. (My mom's not the nicest person.)
I'm very sorry about the long post. I'm just very overwhelmed at the moment, and I haven't seen my husband in 3 weeks. We've been together for 8 years. Any help would be appreciated.
