This is mainly an analysis/design problem instead of a CakePHP problem. I'm not sure, but maybe your "Object" could be a base model and make your other three types of your Object as subclasses of it. Or maybe, depending of your ER diagrams, you could implement this as an ordinary relationship, depending that's is a full or partial relationship (i.e., if is possible to have a Object of more than on type or even a raw Object with no specific type).
