I may get jeered at but.....have you tried an animal communicator?

Unfortunately, no, I can't arrange so he gets quality time at
night. The dog, also a rescue, suffers from separation
anxiety....if I were to lock him out of the room - he'd howl all
night and pee on everything! (much as he does ALL DAY when I'm at
work!) ....plus both Tobias-Rat (the dog) & Coebieo (the other cat)
have IBD....stressful situations, changes in routine triggers an
attack.....Micatullyvhim is my "healthy" one!
And lastly...when he bolts....he does so blindly. I've been
scratched in the eyeball from one of his back claws as he fled
across my face, slammed in the head by his head as he bolted from
the couch (I was sitting in front of it on the floor). I'd like not
to go to bed having to wear a helmet and pads!
The good thing is, I suppose, that he doesn't seem to "NEED" me to
get comfortable or to sleep or feel safe. That has come from his
independant nature to begin with and from the last three years of
having his own room at night. It's only been the last year and a
half where I've let him into the rest of the condo ALL DAY when I'm
home. But his aggression with Coebeio (a much older and smaller -
only 7-8 pounds compared to his 18lb. frame) is
improving....although I can't wait for the day when he FINALLY STOPS
being a pain in the arse with her! The "tully" part of his name
comes from the nerdy character played by Rick Moranis in
Ghostbusters who used to annoy Sigorny Weaver's character...(and
just like that character, Mica used to open doors constantly, only
to lock himself on the wrong side!). Much of the night those first
few months was spent "rescuing" him from closets and cabinets that
he had managed to get into only to have them close back
on him locking him inside....where of course he'd mew in that tiny
cat voice of his CONTINUOUSLY like some kind of cat variation of
Chinese water torture, until I came to free him! I finally had to
put child-proof locks on everything!
Thanks for the imput tho!

Wow, what a little survivor Mica is!
is there a way
that you could sleep with just Mica for a while? Maybe being with
you would
calm his terrors a little, and if it's just you and him you won't
have that
chain reaction.
