If stone or sediment formation is diet related, it can be managed. Another obstruction cannot be ruled out though. Typically, after a cat becomes obstructed multiple times, a urethrostomy procedure is performed. Try to get him to drink as much liquid as possible. This will keep the urine dilute and the kidneys flushed. Mix water into his meals.
