Eli has completely lost it

Eli is picking fights with everyone and disrupting the whole household. He's
always picked on Abelard, poor thing, but now he's going after Baby Eyes and
Tommy, and I'm sure the kittens will be next.

Is there some kind of Bach Flower remedy that might calm him down? He's a
perfect angel with me and when he's not in this current funk but I can't let
this situation continue. Baby Eyes even starting wheezing and choking from
terror!

Have you guys been getting the nonstop rain like we have for the last 2 weeks?
Boots is acting just like Eli. I think it's because of the weather. She doesn't
like to go out when the grass is wet, and I think she's frustrated.

That's so wierd. Because for the first time in months, Grant and Pearl are
stalking each other. It's not violent, but it's like "quit touching me"
"quit touching me". I wonder if it is the weather too.

These guys all go out when it's wet, they don't care.

Just a while ago, Eli chased Baby Eyes up a tree.

Have you tried Feliway?

I'd suggest Hylands Calms Forte which you can get from a health food store.
I give it to 4 of our 5 cats and I think it helps some. I mush the tablet
into powder and mix it with yogurt or their kitty treats.  I've tried Rescue
Remedy but it didn't help us.  I'd also suggest trying to wear Eli out with
hard play sessions so he doesn't have as much interest in messing with the
other cats.  And if he gets out of line I'd put him in a short "time-out" in
another room.  Also try and give him kitty treats and the others treats when
they're in each other's presence and are getting along or at least not
fighting.  I have to keep a close eye on things in our household, too, as
Tucker is not liked much by the other cats in our house. Another possibility
also would be to check with your vet and see if there is an anti-anxiety med
that help.
Hope this helps.

Pat, I've gone through this with Shamrock since day 1. It is
maddening isn't it!  ggggrrrrrrrr  Shamrock used to be a sh*t to
Shadow, and now he is to Bonnie.  I don't know what to do either. :(
