Hi,
I really feel for you.
It's not easy rehoming your cat.
Years ago we had to rehome a korat girl who would not accept our new boy bengal, Jazzi, as boss.
She weighed 8lbs he weighed 20lbs but she wouldn't give in!!!
Long story but she had to go as she was beating up our siamese as well.
She went to a great home and was happy.
Back to your problem.
We then got another boy bengal - Jelli-roll.
From the moment we got him he loved Jazzi.
He'd follow him around, nuzzle him, cry when he wasn't there.
We always said that if Jazzi died Jelli-roll would be lost.
Then, when Jazzi was 16+, he didn't come home.
We posted leaflets, put an advert in the papers and spent weeks following leads.
We were distraught.
Unlike Jelli-roll who moved up to No.1 cat and didn't appear to miss Jazzi at all.
So what I'm trying to say is that maybe we don't really completely understand cats.
We try to empathise with them as if they were human which I now feel is wrong.
Please don't make decisions based on the theory that your cats can't live without each other.
Maybe you should keep your boyand rehome the girl.
