Thanks for reaching out about Valerio and including photos. Providing heat support in the 80-85 F range can give some support but is not a treatment. Causes of lethargy and loose stool are many including infections, metabolic disorders (liver, kidney), stress, gastrointestinal obstruction or inflammation, just to name a few. A veterinary visit is recommended to assess and provide a diagnostic/treatment plan. Good luck.
