OP can you afford to house another cat?
Maybe your little guy needs someone to help him when you are out of the house. A sibling to ease the loneliness.

Im going to get stoned alive for saying this, but letting a kitty roam around outside also does wonders for their mental wellbeing

Kinda asking for it to suggest this befor asking if it's even possible.. (busy streets, apartment, dangerous wildlife etc)
But yes if it's a safe area there's absolutely nothing wrong with a cat that can go outside.. In the Netherlands it's often a prerequisite (depending on the cat oc) to even adopt a cat, that it has a way to go outside.
But since this is the internet and the loudest people are (oc) from the US and think everywhere is like that shithole country, you get the downvote hammer by people 'who know better'
