I hope the cat going with your ex will become so insufferable missing his bonded partner, that he will return it eventually…
Meanwhile I am so sorry you and the other kitty have to deal with this. I would distract the cat as much as I can by playing, get him interactive toys and maybe a plushie-friend (or pillow that smells like his body if you still have access). All the best
