We started out with Chico in a crate on top of an upside down laundry basket right next to my side of the bed. Eventually, he ended up sleeping in our bed, but he was getting up at night and peeing where ever. So now, at 11 mos, he is back in the crate at night, but I don't put him in until he has fallen asleep on the bed and is really out. I also found that putting him in "butt first" doesn't bother him as much. He wakes me up about 4 - 5 am. I take him potty then he gets in bed with us till we get up. Good luck |
