If Link stopped eating this is because he is nauseated and feels sick. It this does not resolve within 24 hours you will need to take him to the vet in order to get it checked and treated, he could be suffering from a gastrointestinal disease, liver disease, kidney disease or a foreign body in the GI tract.
