He laid the paper towels down on its side, right? (I don't have an auto-door-opener, just wanted to clarify for anyone who mistakenly may think it was placed standing up, & use this info the wrong way.)
My 5 cats were more food aggressive until I added Enzymes & Probiotics to their meals.
I also find that feeding a bit less than 1/2 their daily food in the morning, & add what was with-held then to the pm feeding, helps in part because there are 11 hrs btwn am & pm feedings; but 13 hrs btwn pm...
You ought to provide this information -or at least a link to it- with the message that automatically pops up. Ideally, we also ought to be able to disable it permanently. (I also had NO clue what it was & not about to allow it for that reason.)
That sounds promising!
Watch him closely as the day progresses, & keep a detailed journal of exactly where he is & exactly what he's been doing up to the occurence of each symptom. It sounds like his behavioral symptoms are being triggered by something he is either coming into contact with, or...
I think it sounds very much like FHP . . .

I think Main Coon Cats is what the Young Again owner had when I began buying YA Catfood and he was free-feeding them . . . but suggested having their bowls far apart in different parts of the house! I've had trouble free-feeding my (reg) cats, too, but I think they're doing somewhat better...
My cats (5, from 8.6 to 9.8 lbs) also get loose + stinky BMs from eatiing Young Again cat food served straight.
Eventually I tried adding a tiny bit of Coconut Flour to each of their meals (1/32 tsp per 1/2 the daily fare).
This firmed up their BMs nicely (I'm not sure why), but they still...
I take care of a family of community cats. They are on a species specific diet, equivalent to eating a diet of mice. So it's high in both protein & fat, while low in roughage, with *no* digestable carbohydrates. . . . Several of them will overeat if given that option, & when they have it has...
It's good to reflect on the fact that many cats do not do well in the face of change, especially multiples of change!
Loosing their owner to death; being moved into a home with young children; then being put into a rescue with lots of other animals, scents, noises, & reasons for worry. . . ...
I call both of mine with that coat pattern 'Tuxedo Tabbies'.
Their mother is a black & white Tuxedo . . . they are: DSH tabby & white Tuxedos.
One of them is 'Handsome Hoss':
On the other hand, your cat's coat appears to have some golden or orange highlights besides.
However, 'Tuxedo Tabby'...
My understanding is that Coconut Oil balances the pancreas, and that cats produce glucose from protein..
I know nothing about using glucose for anything.
I highly recommend a kitten such as you describe be seen ASAP by a HOLISTIC or NATUROPATHIC Vet!
I prefer giving Coconut oil, as cats are...
I regularly feed 5 cats. 4 of them (when I open the C.O. jar) behave as though I'd just opened a can of Sardines! 3 of them wolf it down ASAP! 1of them takes individual licks or bites, then works each of those around in her mouth for the longest time, then takes another lick or bite ... until...
I regularly give our cats a little Coconut oil -which is super easy to digest- for extra energy, as I've seen it help them in *many* ways 0ver the past 5 years (more if you count the 10 years we had dogs instead). I've seen them go from sleeping constantly -except when eating- to watching the...
