Thank you for the kind thoughts and wishes - Georgie thanks you, too. I absolutely do allow Georgie out of the back bedroom as often as possible so that he can interact with the dogs and the other cats (and I catch and crate Satan Siamese when I can find him if Georgie is roaming the house). I only put Georgie back there in the bedroom when I can tell he is starting to be too stressed, when I have to be at work, and at night when it is bed time.
Another reason for his being in the back bedroom is his poops. I cannot put a litter box in my bedroom because the dogs would get into it + his poops have become very frequent and like water. Currently, I have a jumbo sized litter box inside of a large plastic vari-kennel in the back bedroom. Sometimes he misses the litter box and squirts the inside walls of the vari-kennel. He cannot help it - but I do not want runny, watery cat poops shot onto my walls, or my floor. So the large cat box inside of the semi-enclosed kennel works well for him. I DO have to wash both the pan and the kennel every single day, though.
The two other litter boxes which are in my computer room are large tubs (20 gallon??) with holes cut into the lids so that the cats can jump in and out of them (also keeps the dogs out). Georgie is having a harder and harder time jumping into the tubs.
And today, he hid from me for the first time since he got sick
