Oh my. : ( it sounds like Woody may have a serious musculoskeletal injury to his spine or hips if he can’t get up but is eating only what is near him. I would highly recommend taking him to you local vet for x-rays to start. Hopefully this is something he can recover from, but if not, you may have to discuss end of life options for him moving forward. We don’t want him to continue being in pain this way and having such a poor quality of life. : ( I do hope that you can get Woody seen by your vet soon. Best of luck moving forward. Take care
