Drool being sent too for all those who need it. Can anyone give us any advice - we have a tiny problem. Morse always slept downstairs in the house and all was fine, but since moving he has slept upstairs with us, on a duvet by the bed. I love that, but a slight problem has arisen. Morse wants his breakfast early, and when I say early I mean early - 2am. Now, I suppose he always did want to have breakfast early but when he slept downstairs he had to wait for us to get up and come down to him. Now he gets up and (loudly) shakes himself thoroughly (this starts every time at around 2am) and stares at us expectantly. We have by this time been shaken from our slumber and are
blinking (disbelievingly) at the clock. When we see that it is only 2am we tell him to go back to sleep, which he does, albeit a little grumpily, but he then will only wait until around 4.30am at the latest before it all starts again. If we try and make him go back to sleep then, he will start to whine pitifully which gets louder and louder, so in the end we just give in and give him his breakfast. After that he goes straight back to sleep and (most annoyingly) sleeps until the afternoon while I, if I am at work, have to get up at 6.30am and am a bit bleary eyed for much of the day. What can we do? I don't want him sleeping downstairs - I love hearing his little snores! - so if it carries on I will just put up with it - or can any ingenious droolers think of any way how we can convince Morse that 7.00am is so much more civillised?</P>
