Caesar not feeling well!!

[T-bred]

HI guys,

Caesar has been acting funny lately, he doesn't like leaving his stall even to go outside, he is stocked up[no heat] and he has a runny nose. He is 16 years old and so he has some joint problems so I will be putting him on a supplement, as for the stocking up he is really stomping his feet when he is outside because of the bugs and I was wondering if that could cause it, and every summer his nose runs[possibly allergies?] I was just wondering if you guys had any ideas on what could be wrong and what I could do!!???

Probably the best thing to do would be to call the vet. As you say his problem could be related to things like the flies bothering him which could be making him depressed and seem a little off in his ways.

The only way to stop his iritations from flys and other insects is either fly sheets or insect repelent. Have you also considered turninghim out on a night instead of juring the day when the pollen count is lower and there are less biting insects about?
