Default Help for cat in cage...

I wrote earlier about stray FElV+ Big Boy for whom I'm looking for a home.
In the meantime, he is confined to my bathroom or a big dog kennel I
borrowed. Problem is that he is now meowing almost constantly--I know he
wants to get out but I can't let him because of my own cats...Does anyone
have any suggestions as to how to calm him down & make him a little more
content?

I've never tried it myself, but I've noticed in many posts that posters say
Feliway seems to have a calming effect on cats. Something about a calming
pheromone similar to what the cats rub on walls etc- Again, can't speak from
personal experience, but maybe it will soothe him.

Maybe this seems silly but how about a tiny tv in there too?

Or a radio?
