Thanks for posting this question. I am really worried about Kent too. Urinary obstruction can be very serious and even fatal. If he was obstructed fir a long enough time it may have damaged his kidneys which may be why he isn't eating. It also looks by the picture that maybe he is leaking urine? That is very concerning too. I worry his urethra may be damaged. I would encourage you to reach out to your veterinarian and take him back in for a recheck and possible blood work. His condition is very serious and could potentially be fatal. I'm so sorry Kent is so sick. I wish him the best.

    I would recommend that you have Milo examined by a vet immediately. Lack of urination in a cat diagnosed with bladder stones can indicate blockage or severe kidney damage, and this is a medical emergency. Sometimes you have to try a couple different brands of the prescription food for urinary disease to find which one a cat will like. But this is a secondary issue to the fact that he isn't producing urine right now.
