I have had my bobtail since last christmas and i was new to learn his habbits when it came to him shedding. He went off his food for a week or so, even vomited - but then shed the skin and was back to his normal self.
So now its been a good 2 months since that last shed and now i assume its about to happen again. I dont see him that often, he is getting pale like last time and going off his food.
But this time it seems to be taking longer and it feels like he hasn't dumped in what feels like 2 weeks. He has eaten a few meals in this time and i am worried that if he keeps eating - but not releiving himself - that he might get sick.
So i guess my question is - shall i stop feeding him until he goes to the toilet?
or - is it possible he is constipated?
He eats dog meat with all his vegies mixed in. If i just give him vegies and no dog meat, he will not touch the food. He will go days without eating unless that dog food is in his bowl.
So yeah..... ??
