Sounds like he just wants to sleep at the moment. I remember now, him having bugs.

Can't quite imagine his nest. Does he come out of it at all? You could maybe lift him out onto a blanket on your knee and see if he'll take water from a teaspoon.

But if he's taken to his bed, not coming out and not eating or drinking, then it's possible he is dying. And then it's a case of keeping them comfortable. The fact that he eats the salad suggests he does want to eat but is perhaps feeling too weak to do anything about it. Where does he pee normally? He must be getting up if he goes somewhere to pee.
