When Ruger was sick i was force feeding him with the food they said to give him and he hated it. I tried mixing it with other things and he still wouldn't eat. He too slept all day vomitted the bile and his sugar levels went down. Finally i just gave him chicken baby food and he seemed to eat a little of it off my finger. he ended up having to stay in the vet for a long time, but even for them he would only eat baby food. Have them do a stool sample and check for parasites, stress can trigger giardia. I also was told it is important to keep themn warm. the vet told me not to use a heating pad becasue it is a dry heat and can cause dehydration, she had me take a water bottle and warm it up and then put it in a towel next to him, he really liked it. Hope your little guy is feeling better.
