Poor Chinu! The problem is that he cannot talk tell you why this is happening. It sounds like he is not feeling well. Just like humans, pets can become ill due to a number of causes. I recommend to have Chinu examined by his veterinarian today to start figuring out what is wrong. Only a physical examine can start to narrow down the reasons. Bring in a fresh stool sample as well in case the doctor wants to test for parasites. I hope they figure it out quickly and please feel free to post any additional questions.
