Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. If Mojo is lethargic and not wanting to eat, I would recommend having a veterinarian examine him so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I would recommend having his blood tested and x-rays taken of his abdomen. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
