Put a washcloth over him and pick him up. Finish cleaning with one hand if you have to then put him back in. Depending on his age/size, he probably needs to eat once a week but this behavior is defensive, not aggressive. They(most of them) do not like things moving around in front of them in their "space". It scares them. They naturally think everything is going to be a predator. I would hold him a little more often as well and make sure all Temps and humidity are spot on. I'm going to go ahead and post this to you bc I know you are in a situation but I'd like to share how I got my guy out of this same behavior. Feel free to message me after you get finished. Good luck mama!
