I strongly recommend for her sake that she invests in a large crate to confine him to when she is sleeping - provide food, water a litter tray and cosy bed so he can settle comfortably on his own. I would also recommend a natural calming supplement such as royal canin calm food or kalm aid. A pheromone diffuser may also help to ease any stress and anxiety which may be triggering such repetitive behaviour
