Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I would just feed him a canned food diet for the weekend as the increased moisture will help dilute his urine. Any canned food will be ok for the next few days. That will save you from having to buy a bag of dry food you won't then use. You can also ask your Vet to write you a prescription for the food so you can get the food at a Pet store that carries is. Some pet stores that have Vet clinics attached will sell prescription food, but you need a written prescription. That way if this happens again you have a solution. These pet stores will also keep your prescription on file for the future and give you a card. I wish you the best!
