If the lethargy continues then you should be worried and he should be examined by a vet to determine if there is a problem. Your vet can do a full examination to look for abnormalities and then determine if treatment is needed. He could have a infection that is causing him to be lethargic. Your vet can also run lab-work, if needed, to help diagnose.
