Their 'safe' place has been a room in the basement where I keep the litter pans
and the food. I've had to move the food upstairs to be sure everyone's eating.
I've left the litter pans and some toys and cat trees down there and tried not
to chase anyone down there for vet visits or pilling. But Shaft has been
hiding down there from pilling to the point that yesterday I had to go down
there to pill him. :(

If he has had the run of the house crating him may feel like
punishment to him. I give mine safe places. When they are in their safe
place I don't mess with them. I also make a point of picking them up for some
love every time we cross paths. I don't want them to think the only time I
pick them up is for meds. I'm short on space so I have storage tubs under the
beds eliminating that as a hiding space.

If you can crate him and cover his crate with a sheet sprayed with Feliway
it might help....maybe put Rescue Rememdy in his water. On Jul 19, 2008, at
