Been there, done that. I have a really loud dehumidifier in my bedroom now...lol. If somebody is in heat the boys sleep in the living room and sometimes they do scratch at the door...but I try not to hear it. You think that's bad...be lucky you only have ONE boy...try keeping the WRONG male away from a female you're breeding while you're trying to breed the other one to her...lol that's a challenge when they're all sleeping in your bed or you're sitting in the living room watching a movie and they're all chasing each other around trying to get belly bands, diapers, and clothes off.
