Either you want to breed him or you want to get him back on food.
His breeder says he stops every year and after he's with her he usually starts eating again.

 Stay in peace and not pieces.

Gottcha. If you really want to know if he's peeing, you can always move him to white paper towel. No hiding the evidence.
