Thank you all so much for the suggestions regarding Google and his random attacks! He has gotten MUCH better this month!
We did get a feliway plug, but it has only been in for maybe a week, so I dont know how much it is actually helping yet. But we have been making sure not to play with him with our feet, and to scream if he tries to get us. Seems to be working great!
We have also gotten extra toys for him, a new scratcher in the turbo scratcher (with a replacement golf ball.... which makes a lovely noise when he manages to get it out of the scratcher and go rolling it through our house on the hard wood floors at 3 am....
), a catnip banana, a catnip cigar, extra crinkle and jingle balls, and hairbows (he loves to fetch them). We've also been having some extra play sessions.
Also we have been giving him wet food, which he loves and it makes him extremely happy, later at night and it seems he is in a much better mood! I tell him its because he's been a good boy but I highly doubt that is helping! LOL!
The past 3 nights he has slept with us! He never really has before, and when he did he would sleep at the end of the bed, but now he is actually up next to us purring away! (Joey still tries to sleep between us or on us...) I also got to hold him this morning for about 15 minutes without any angry noises! He was purring and seemed very happy, but got distracted by a bird!
The only problem we are still having is him trying to get into his off-limit rooms constantly! One being the guest bedroom and the other being the garage (the garage door is open often and there are way too many chemicals down there!) But I think that will never get better! He's just a typical nosy kitty!
Again thank you guys for your suggestions!

He's been mostly okay with us humans it's Pandora he's been attacking (not drawing blood, just lots of noise). It's frustrating when your fur kid won't behave!
