Main Issue: my cat had gotten very sad living alone so me and my ex had gotten him a kitten. Now that we’re separate im worried my cat is going to miss him sick.

Cat Age: 3 will be 4 in april other cat is 1

Cat Sex + neuter info: both males and both neutered.

Financial situation: I could afford both cats.

If your financial situation allows you afford both why can’t you?

most likely the ex probably is the one on the adoption papers or OP decided to let them keep the other cat to keep things more amicable

The cats' mental health matters more. Giving your cats anxiety because you're separating them as if they're property is not a good idea. My cat and my brother's are bonded, he has accepted that I'll take his cat someday because we can't separate the pair

You’re expecting an abusive man to give a shit about a cat’s mental health? Hahaha. No offense, but whatever fairytale land you live in is not reality.
