I really love my cat, Mozart, and I’m moving to Nashville in January. My cat lives with my parents along with three other animals, and he’s not very close with any of his fellow animal friends (one cat and two dogs). He is very bonded to me. But I’m still worried that if I take him to live with me, he’ll miss his animal companions. As a cat with no other animals in the house, what do you think I should do? If I take him, how can I make him more comfortable being alone?

Dear Natasha,
Did you say that your cat lives with not one, but two dogs? Take him. Take him away as soon as you possibly can.
Perhaps he'll miss his feline friend, but cats are territorial and often do better on their own. If he's bonded to you, he'll just be happy to be reunited.
However, moving can be hard for cats. We're creatures of habit, and have a hard time in new environments. I'd make sure to give him lots of pets and stinky fish, especially in the beginning.
Good luck with the move!
XOXO,
Bubbles
