So everything's been fine with Cas until Friday when we got a small cold front. Temperatures have dropped to 75 degrees, and it's sunny outside. I went outside and brought him in to give him his daily food. Usually he eats at ten or eleven. Today he only ate a little. He seems to be really sleepy, but wakes up when I dip him in water. Today he hasn't touched his food and remains sleeping.

What's going on with Cas? Should I be worried?

Gulf coast region, he is a sulcata tortoise. I have him next to me now under a heat lamp. D:[/align]

We suddenly got cooler here too, and mine slowed way down with the appetite to. That is pretty normal.

I was hoping that the cold had something to do with it. It's not that cold, it's Fall weather, but still. He stays outside in an enclosure, but we're planning on bringing him in, in the next week or two.

This is him right now. He moved some, yawned and then stretched out like this. D:
