When you get him up in spring then I would start to change his diet a bit at a time and I'm sure you will be enjoying him for years to come.

Thanks Gordon. I do tend to worry and having the position and responisbilty of caring for a well loved family pet that I've grown up with did get me frantically googling on how best to care for him. I'm going to follow the sound advice given combined with what he's used to.
