If Boyka was fine then all of the sudden extremely ill like you have described, the most likely causes of his changes include some type of toxic exposure or an infection. A traumatic experience can not be ruled out either, as the clinical signs you are describing are certainly consistent with pain and discomfort. If it is at all possible, I would recommend having him examined by a veterinarian as soon as possible. The vet should be able to give you a better idea why Boyka's condition has changed so rapidly.
