P.S. I didn't leave some poop in each box and I'm going to pick up some of Dr. Elsey's Cat Attract Crystals to hopefully coax her back to her box. Don't know how it works. Also I'm putting a third box downstairs next to her basement bed (storms, etc) since she's used the bed twice (poop).

Hi! Can that liquid med be made into a transdermal application?
These below are calming products and music sources;
There's Spotify--they have a collection of harp music called Cat In My Arms, there's Youtube and Alexa cat music, and there's also RelaxMyCat and MusicForCats.
Only Natural Pet has a calming product called Just Relax Calming spray with essential oil (catnip oil).
There's this one, be sure and scroll all the way down the page;
www.bachflower.com
Also, there is ThunderWunders calming chews, Richard's Organic Pet Calm drops, Naturevet Hemp, HomeoPet Anxiety Relief, Head to Tail Calming, Relaxivet Quiet Moments Cat treats, GNC Calming formula, and there is Calm-o-mile, Natures Miracle calming spray, Vetri-Science's Composure is another item to look at, Pet Remedy - UK (it has valerian) is yet another, as is Essential Pet Pet-eze, Pet Organics No Stress, Only Natural Pet (brand and website) has other calming products, Pet Naturals also has one I believe, and there are others.
Lambert Vet Supply is a website to look at, and of course chewy, also there's Petwishpros, animaleo, 1-800-petmeds, Petco and PetSmart, and other pet stores.
There is also a product called a lickimat which could be helpful, as cats can be calmed by the process of licking.

Calming Treats For A Very Picky Cat
Do you eat canned tuna? If so give the oil or water from it a try. I use some of that to mask liquid meds for the cats to eat. You could try that with a broth if you cook a meal that has some broth or soup.
You can try wrapping them in a blanket (burrito style as suggested earlier) or if you can hold her in your lap while petting her, locate her neck pinch spot that makes her go limp. If you can find that spot, when pinched or gripped, that makes them go limp, you might be able to give her the meds them. Not sure how effective or if there would be trust issues with that method used but it is an option.
Just a suggestion or two.

It's hard to fool them, that's for sure. My Ruby girl HATES being restrained in any way at all, so pilling or syringing meds into her is impossible. I tried mixing chicken flavoured liquid medicine into her wet food once, and it was detected and rejected outright. So I understand what you're dealing with.

It works! I burritoed her and the ordeal was over in less than 5 seconds. I was beginning to think I was a source of additional stress. she's regular stool wise. I cut the Myralax back to once a day a couple of days ago and discontinued it today because the stool is becoming too wet, if you know what I mean.
Good for you!!

It's one of those situations where when things are not ok, they're really quite frustrating.
Fingers crossed it continues.
