Foxy is experiencing very general symptoms of disease, these symptoms could fit almost any internal condition, maybe she is suffering from nausea due to a gastrointestinal disease and maybe she is in pain, from the symptoms described it's very hard to know. i would recommend taking her to the vet as soon as possible in order to get him checked, if she doesn't show any other obvious symptoms during the examination, a blood test and possibly an ultrasound will be needed in order to try and find out what is wrong with her.

Poor Foxy! As difficult as it may be, he should be taken to a veterinarian. A physical exam, blood work and xrays may be necessary to diagnose the underlying condition. Supportive care (IV fluids, parenteral nutrition, antibiotics, etc) may also be indicated. Do not give him any medications without the advice of a veterinarian. You can try offering a bland diet (1:1 ratio of plain boiled boneless chicken and plain white rice). Serve it in small, frequent amounts. Warming it up may stimulate Foxy's appetite. An electrolyte replacement solution, such as PediaLyte or similar product, can also be offered.
