I just woke up and checked on Gimpy. I found him laying down with his head close to his water and food dish. I'd never seen him lay there before. I checked and saw his pellets hadn't been touched over night, he usually eats them all. He also didn't get up when I came close to his cage with got me worried in the first place. I then saw 2 pee spots and wet foot prints around his cage floor. Lately he has been having some litter box issues(see thread in the cage section, since I changed his cage aroun) but he has been better for a week or more now.
I picked him up to check him over and his butt is wet with pee. Not too bad, mostly his feet and stomach, not so much around his tail etc. BUt when I put him back down he went back to laying down. Which is very unlike Gimpy. Usually he is mad when he is handled and goes into his cage, thumps and sits in the corner for a while grooming.
His stomach felt normal to me, pretty soft, not hard or anything.
Do you think I should call the vet just in case?
