Let me ask you something else..

Suppose I write {vIghro'lIj'e' vIparHa'} for "as for your cat, I like it".

Is it correct to say that the object of {vIparHa'} is the {vIghro'lIj'e'} ?

There are two possible interpretations.

The normal one, which anyone would choose given no other context, is that vIghro'lIj'e' is the emphasized object of vIparHa'.

However, it is also possible to consider a noun with -'e' to be a syntactic noun, like nouns with -Daq, -vo', -mo', or -vaD. It is therefore possible to interpret vIghro'lIj'e' as the topic of the sentence rather than its object, and the actual object is elided.

Consider this sentence:

vIghro'lIj'e' veDDaj vIparHa'
As for your cat, I like his fur.

Your sentence is the same sentence, just with the veDDaj elided: As for your cat, I like it. Without context we don't know what the it refers to, but it's still a valid interpretation of the sentence.
