Hello, thank you for your question about Kai. It sounds like Kai is not feeling well, the symptoms that you describe could be signs of a respiratory infection. I would recommend having him seen by a veterinarian so that they can examine him and look for any abnormalities that could be causing these symptoms. Hope this helps, good luck!
