Hi there. So sorry to hear that Sonny is having this issue. Without examining him myself it is hard to say what is going on based on your description. My guess is maybe kidney pain or swollen abdominal lymph nodes. I suggest you get him to your vet for an exam. This could be a serious issue. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
