It sounds like Bent may not be feeling well if he is hunching up when you touch his belly, isn't walking and is very lethargic. Illness, digestive upset, diseases and more can all cause these symptoms, so it is best to schedule an appointment with your local vet. They can help figure out what's causing Bent's illness and get him feeling better.
