Why is my rose acting odd

Hi I was looking for a bit of advice ... I’ve had my rose 28 years and she’s always seemed happy but just lately she’s declined any food and is acting skittish when I approach her which is really unusual . Could this be the end ? I know she’s old but I’m really worried . Thank you for any replies

Some pictures may help us to help you :)
When did she last moult?
Has anything changed in her enclosure? For example have you recently redone it for her or changed the layout?

It’s not uncommon for Rosea’s to fast especially as they grow older so I wouldn’t be concerned about that. As for her behaviour, I have a few that are skittish and a few that are like pet rocks.
Have you moistened the substrate or spilt the water dish? It’s kind of the only time my more chilled ones are more skittish then usual
