I would recommend that Yoyo get checked out by a vet. A poor appetite and green eye and nose discharge can be symptoms of a life-threatening infection by Distemper Virus. There is no cure for this infection. Treatment depends on the symptoms and usually includes IV fluid therapy to maintain hydration, anti-nausea medications, probiotics if eating, antibiotics to prevent secondary bacterial infections, support for diarrhea, etc. Other causes for these symptoms include severe dehydration, other infection, sever allergies, among a few others. Here is some more info on Distemper: http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=1733
