When you're packing to move countries you need to inspect everything you're taking, and I mean everything. Because you need to judge whether it'll fit in your weight limit, or survive a trip as excess baggage, or whether it's meant to stay here with your (ex-)flatmate, or with your (ex-)wife, or ...
Of course you will then come across long-lost gems, like this photo of the family cat Ashley. I had this on my door at University if anyone recalls. :) And yes, he's still alive, even though this photo was taken in 1998 and he was clearly a full-grown cat already.

excerpt from a poem that included mention of "Ashley":
.......
Now we’ve got this lovely old grey cat
That’s mentally, “well, not here”,
If someone even looks at him
His eyes light up with fear
And as for getting close to him
To give a kindly little pat
It takes some months to win his trust
And very few have managed that
......
I would allow him in on a type O1 visa. He seems to have mastered enlightenment/contentment as most of us humans have not. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the view.
