Using a treat would probably work really well, but it might take some time to get him to expect the treat at a certain time. If you put him to bed at the same time you go to bed, it's easier. He'll learn to recognize your nighttime routine (like changing clothes) and figure out that that means it's treat time, and he'll go to the spot where he knows he gets the treat.
That's how my rabbits are, anyway! They know when I put my pajamas on, it's time for papaya.
Same for mine, they judge me very hard when I'm too late for their dinner. Sometimes they try to trick me by sitting in their spot earlier than usual... fools, I have a clock, I know it's not dinner time yet!!
They also know which spot and/or which sound is for treats.
Instead of a command, I just make a certain sound which tells them it is t r e a t t i m e.
That watermelon treat is a good idea, I'm too lazy for that though *lol* Just put watermelon in the fridge, it's cool enough and then i put a few pieces on top of their food. :3
