yes...I have been suffering with this...I just got Silk a couple of months ago and she wakes up at like 3am, 4am, or 5am...

I never thought of the garage...thanks for the suggestion...

I'll have to try that tonight...I would like to sleep in at least one day till 6am. Problems is the last time I ignored her she pooped and peed in her crate...

but I have started to remove the food around 7 or 8 pm so she can adjust her potty time.
