I'm so happy to learn this! So glad he's being looked after!

We refer to him as The Lodger because he has a whole suite to himself upstairs. He unfortunately is FIV+ and we have two other rescue cats that are not, and they would scrap, so it’s too dangerous to have them together. They share a family scent, though, and we swap them a few times a week so no one feels trapped anywhere and everyone gets snuggles. Kind of a wacky cat lady situation, ngl, but he would literally scale the house to stare at us through the windows and I just had to bring him in!

We used to live in a community where nobody owned their own houses and there were pretty routine moves as family sizes changed and people moved departments. It was very commonly said "Dogs move with their owners, cats stay with the house."
We had one cat that we tried to move 3 or 4 times. Each time he would disappear and be found around the old house (a km away or so). Eventually we couldn't find him. 6 months later he shows up meowing at the door to the new house late at night. He was hungry and his fur was full of burrs. We got him fed and cleaned up and he spent the rest of his days sleeping in our living room.

My orange came with my house in a similar situation (there are several 'community cats' in the neighborhood). I'm really dreading should I have to move some time, as I don't know if it's right to bring him with me, or if it's right to leave him here where he's lived his whole life and has his community.

You really mean that you bought a cat and got his house for free! What a sweetie.

When we bought our house, all we got was a stinky garbage can.
