Try and prepare for taking him to the vet comfortably. Do you have a pet carrier? I usually have the pet carrier on my knee with a blanket it over it - partly helps keep them warm and cosy and also protects them from the stress of noise, flashing lights and light generally.
Plenty of bedding and nesting material in the pet carrier and a bit of cucumber in there.
If you think he is dying then you might want to wait and see how he is tomorrow.

I pulled his "nest" off from him (it's just a bed for rodents and he sleeps under it) and I tried giving him water from the teaspoon and he just sniffed it and started pulling the bed back on his nest, but his eyes were still half closed. My friend is still looking for a vet.
