Medusa will also recommend Clomicalm, which a cat or two of hers have been on and works great.
However, if Sam is hard to pill - and it might stress him out a bit more anyway - spraying the Feliway on his tree/bedding and in the air is well worth a try! It saved my friends' cats from being PTS when they had exhausted every single other option - it was a peeing issue.

And Kimba makes three
Time is your best friend in this situation. That, and Feliway. Neither Mac nor Ming like Kimba at all at first. For about two months,there was growling, snarling, and actual fights from time to time. Kimba always stood his ground, heck, sometimes he was the instigator. It's been three months since I took Kimba in and things are much quieter now. I still here the occasional growl, but no fur has flown in awhile. The boys are just getting used to having him here and have accepted him, sort of. They may never be best buds, but it seems they are working it out.
Proud to be a crazy cat lady!

Thank you all. Sprays are best. I bought some today along with the diffuser for constant protection. I haven't used it yet.
Sam appears to have made his statement for now and is back on his tree.

You've been given some great advice. I hope that the Feliway spray will help Sam. Good luck.

I put the diffuser in the litter room. I'll spray as I need to.
Things are up today. Sam was on my bed (after sulking for the last week) and Bob was on the bed not one foot from him. Progress!

Yay!!! Hope things continue to improve for your kitties. Just earlier this year Buddy would NOT let his little sisters come within a few feet of him and now they all play together and sleep next to each other. Cats are really amazing the way they learn to coexist.

I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
