constant hacking could be a sign of acute nausea, that can be caused by a gastrointestinal infection, pancreatitis, foreign body in the intestines and many other diseases. you will need to take Leo to the vet in order to get him checked, he will probably need a blood test done and possibly an xray too in order to reach a diagnosis.
