Does he have any other symptoms? Is he drinking and urinating? Not the best thing for him, but does he turn his nose up at human food? Is he active or trying to be active?

Did anything change in his environment such as moving, death of a playmate, someone in the household moving out or in, has it been extremely hot, etc. Was he ill before this? Could he have swallowed something that might not show up on an x-ray?

I would seek a second opinion from another vet. That seems like a pretty drastic drop in weight. Have you considered trying boiled hamburger or chicken with rice?
