A thought...

Possibly he's getting tired of the trip up/down the stairs for
a *byte* to eat ??

Could you try placing his food on the main floor?
And maybe he just wants *company* at meal time?

Also - a snack tray - possibly under the BigBed?
Might reduce the before-bed time fuss if he didn't have to march
ALL The Way Down to the basement to satisfy that mid-nite
craving for a *snack*!



Then again - there's always EAR Plugs!
