I am so sorry that KJ is so sick. I am really worried about him. He is likely extremely dehydrated and has something very serious going on. There are several things that could be going on like sever GI disease, poor nutritional absorption, kidney or liver disease, severe anemia, severe parasites, and much more. I would strongly encourage you to have a vet take a look at him as soon as possible. Your vet will be able to determine the cause and get him started on the proper treatment plan to help him feel better. Unfortunately, with how sick he sounds there aren't any good home remedies to help him feel better. I hope this helps and he starts feeling better soon!
