I don't know how bitter the divorce has been, but is there any way the cats could move from house to house together? Or would you risk losing them both entirely.

It's very amicable but we're also moving a fair distance away from each other. One of them also hates the carrier and screams like a dying banshee, pees all over himself, it's ugly

The obvious solution is one gets the cats full time and another gets new cats.

Yeah it sounds like they had a bonded pair. As much as it sucks, this is the best option for them.

My vet gave me gabapentin for one of my cats because she gets so stressed out going to the vet. Sadly, she has go regularly because of her issues.

Oh yeah, I guess you're doing the best you can.
