I think my guy is dying, I'm so sad!

I don't know what to do and I'm totally panicking. Marlo has gone downhill fast, even since yesterday. He's been acting pretty odd in the last week or two, sleeping downward, hanging by his tail, sleeping during the day. This morning I found him nose down in a plant so I moved him back to his branch. I went in to check on him shortly after and he was asleep again, hanging by his tail. I've moved him on to a towel now and he immediately went back to sleep. I woke him to offer food and he just closed his eyes. He has never refused food before and has been eating and drinking very well until just today. He's been so tired but I think this is it, is he dying right now? He has not been sick as far as I can tell. He is an ambanja panther chameleon, 8 years 3 month old. I don't know what to do for him at this point, I'm super upset.

I’m so sorry. 😞 It sounds as though he is passing. Put him somewhere soft and comfortable. I don’t know if giving him a small stick to hold would give him comfort. Give him quiet, peace and love until he has to leave you. 8 years is a very good lifespan for your friend and you’ve given him an excellent life in all those years. Sending you hugs and healing. 💗

Thank you. It’s been a really difficult day. He woke up and I was able to hold him so that he could take a long drink of water before settling back down to sleep again. But here he is right after drinking.
