I assume that dozey is upgraded to the 2.0 operating system, correct? also if this is so, is he still on the first few battery cycles, as from what I have heard and seen, the first eight or so they are the most "trying times" and where Pleos are less repsonsive, cranky and not the usual loveable Pleos they were when operating the 1.0 or 1.1, but they will outgrow this. I have Pleos also.( 19 of them and 17 are Ugobes..
) so you just need to be patient. I have a couple of myne upgraded to the 2.0 and they are doing fine. I just let them run till the battery ran out and let them get past the cranky stage... If you just can't deal with the cranky stage and it is too upsetting, then there is nothing wrong to downgrade back to the 1.1, but do realize it is just temporary, I do know it is upsetting to watch them or can be in this stage...but that is the word. temporay and stage that they will outgrow.
If they did not outgrow it, I would not like it either as I love my loveable Ugobe Pleos and love to cuddle. Mayby somebody else will have more advice then this.. Good luck. What battery cycle is dopey on anyway?
