    Is he eating at all?
    Any other symptoms other than being off his food?

    At his age it is fairly normal for them to go through a picky eating stage. They are teething and eating can sometimes hurt, especially dry food.

    You can try changing his food a little by mixing something through it, I find sardines usually work, or even a little canned food.
    You can also try soaking regular dry food in warm water half an hour prior to feeding. About 2/3 - 1 cup of water to 2 cups dry in a shallow dish is usually pretty good.

    Don't forget to give him plenty of chew toys while teething as well though. Although it hurts them and they are off their food, they still enjoy chewing toys and it helps to loosen the teeth.

    Please bring him to the vet! Is he drinking water? How long was it since he last ate?

    Sorry, I misread something, but was also wondering is he has eaten since yesterday.

    If he hasn't eaten in two days, than he probably didn't eat yesterday. :rolleyes:
