Thank you guys for the recommendations. I do have 6 litter boxes, but I may go buy some temporary disposable one's at put them in different locations around the house just to try and encourage more litter box usage until he gets better at it again.
I have thought about purchasing some Jackson Galaxy essences, since I believe it would probably help all the cats in the house. I'll definitely be giving them a try.
Echo is the kitty that gets bullied (I believe she is a mix of Russian Blue and tabby 17449_1304124450871_2479624_n.jpg), but as I mentioned she was bottle fed and not litter raised, because her mother cat died when she was only 3 weeks old. I raised her with a bottle and did all the mother cat duties. She has never been much of a social creature when it comes to the other cats and even with most people. She just did not have the opportunity to be exposed to the litter mentality.
Most of the other cats just tolerate her and ignore her. When I got Samson, he desperately tried to play with her, but she would just hiss and run away like usual. I think that put a bad taste in his mouth, so now that he's the bigger boy in the house, he chases her. I try to play with him and keep him busy so he's not as aggressive, which helps when he's been so busy he's tired, but the essences might help. I'll give them a try. I'm willing to do anything to keep the peace, and because I love them all, I have a lot of patience when it comes to dealing with it. Thanks once again for the suggestions. :)
