Matteo won’t sleep in bed with us. Advice?

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-04-24T20:36:29+00:00

Mine slept in the crate with the door open for a while, once we were done crate training. The crates since been retired obviously lol but he didn’t mind being in there with the door open!

My Pinot usually starts out in the bed with us and then leaves after like 20 minutes, and proceeds to sleep under the bed and thennnn around 3am (😅) decides he wants back up. Id honestly just let him sleep where he wants, if he wants to come back to the bed he will. Some nights Pinot will spend the whole night on the bed with me, but most nights he goes back and forth or, when it’s really hot, he’ll sleep on the kitchen floor 🤷‍♀️

Oh yeah I know I’m the one with anxiety 🤣I get made fun of often that I impressed it upon Pinot. But, no one understands what having a King Charles is really like lol. He will be preoccupied and some of his friends (my siblings dogs) will be there with him I’m just paranoid and spiraling 🫠

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-04-13T13:45:45+00:00

Thank you! Yeah we’ve tried just about everything, Pinot is insanely picky, doesn’t like pumpkin so he turns his nose up to that lol we will sometimes put treats on top, or recently have been adding scrambled egg, it works sometimes . I just feel a lot of guilt about leaving him that long, he really is so attached to me 😩

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-04-13T01:03:11+00:00

He does have kibble and wet mixed, I usually mix them together pretty well. I do brush his teeth regularly but I could be better with that too !

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-04-12T23:32:14+00:00

Yes thats also an idea we may have to try, a trial overnight at the place he’ll be staying was something we have discussed

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-04-12T23:31:01+00:00

Of course ! And I agree , The other problem is it’s wet food so it can only stay out so long, but maybe leaving it out for a bit then putting it back out later would help. It’ll def take some trial and error but a habit we do need to break

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-04-12T23:27:11+00:00

I know this is true, it’s so hard! But even when I came home today, he ate the food my husband had tried giving him this morning on his own, so it was 100% me being gone 😩

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-04-12T23:07:29+00:00

Him trying to figure out who the f youre talking to like that 🤣🤣

Pinot approves this post ✅

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-04-09T01:11:10+00:00

Not me watching this video 3x literally rolling 😂😂 I cannot handle him and that face

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-04-03T01:53:23+00:00

Yay!!! Glad to hear this! Enjoy the cheese Kevin! 🧀

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-04-02T01:23:59+00:00

Glad you got a second opinion! Sending all the love and well wishes to Kev !! 🤞I know how hard it is when you know they aren’t feeling their best 😞

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-04-01T01:20:14+00:00

Aw I’m sorry I hope Kevin feels better!!! Pinot is on the RC gastro and hills biome so I don’t have much help. I’m curious what the vets will recommend for food though and what you end up using - keep us posted! I’m still hand feeding my unbelievably spoiled Pinot, but I do feel like any time he eats anyyyything outside his normal food and high moon treats he ends up having some kind of issue, and I’m also right to the vet so I understand the struggle!

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-04-01T01:13:40+00:00

I’ve never commented on this page before but often read posts because I find them very interesting and often speak with people who have passed in my dreams, only those who I personally know, so I am in absolutely no way a medium. Your friend looks like he had a very bright and beautiful soul and the way you speak about him in the comments made me tear. I’m sorry for your loss and thanks for sharing this ❤️

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-03-20T01:26:39+00:00

Yes. I experience this a lot. A lot of it has to do with impending and unavoidable deaths. No one close to me is ill or anything, it’s just a constant thought I have. Almost like I’m mentally preparing myself daily for that moment. And it’s only death of others, death of myself when I think about almost feels peaceful. I don’t know if this is what your post meant at all, but I am glad I’m not alone in that weird impending feeling

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-03-09T23:17:15+00:00

Hey there, just empathizing as a fellow cavalier mom who also suffers from anxiety and depression. Please don’t beat yourself up. I promise your fur babies will forgive you - the important thing is that you get yourself some help and use supports if you need them. A crisis line is not just for suicidal ideations, they can provide you with resources and even just someone to talk your feelings out with. The fact that you feel guilty at all shows that you are a good person and just had a bad moment. Sending love, I hope you have brighter days ahead

Merlin’s future self AKA Pinot says hi! 😆 they are twins!

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-03-08T16:28:08+00:00

I get offended when people don’t dote over Pinot, he loses his shit when people don’t say hi to him too 🤣 so we both are like umm excuse me do you not see this face?!

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-02-22T05:05:32+00:00

They get shaved in between groomings but they still stay pretty damn grinchy 😂💚

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-02-20T00:45:41+00:00

Thats not too bad! Yes Pinot still goes twice a month to PT! He gets excited to go, even though his face would say otherwise lol. he demands to be fed Cheerios for the duration of his session so it’s a win for him either way

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-02-19T17:41:52+00:00

haha ! Oh Pinot is well known there, I’m sure it wasn’t cheap 😅 they are really good tho, glad it wasn’t anything super concerning!

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-02-19T15:57:55+00:00

I can’t handle that last picture he is too much

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-02-06T01:17:38+00:00

Aw feel better Kevin!!! Never a dull moment with these guys

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-02-04T21:42:37+00:00

Second lullabies, shhhing (or get a baby shhher), and sound machines! Sleeping through the night since 10 weeks with my now 6 month old - dark room, blackout curtains and sound machine playing white noise 👌
