I know it may sound mad because we know he has not eaten because he has been ill but I would also try another bowl as I have had this with Molly once or twice when she has been poorly and then interested in the food and when her dish goes down she walks away - in another bowl she will eat it - worth a try.
Thanks for all you are doing for this special boy - I agree he is very special indeed

Continuing healing and positive thoughts.
