You need to get your cat to the vet ASAP. He/she could have an intestinal blockage. He is probably or will become dehydrated. Another possibility is an Intussusception of the intestine - which symptoms may include vomiting & diarhea. This is very serious. And after not eating for a length of time, can cause liver damage & lead to death. Your vet will probably do blood work, and is recommended. Good luck with your cat, and please share an update.
Also want to add - you do not need to put a cat to sleep just because of stones, they can be taken care of. Surgery costs, if necessary, vary greatly depending on where you live, so the $300 quote from above may be very high for your area, or vice versa. Also wanted to mention that vomiting & diarhea are also typical symptoms of IBD, but this would not explain his not eating. Please be sure to make that appointment ASAP, or if you have to, make a trip to the emergency vet (it you have one nearby - it will cost more, but could also mean saving your kitties life). Again, please give an update.

Sounds like he is dehydrated, and possibly has something blocking the digestive tract. Could even be inflamation in the digestive tract.
In any case, your cat needs to be seen by a vet ASAP.

ok, your cat has a very serious version of urinary tract disease, it would be best to take him to the vet, he may also have bladder stones, the surgery will cost about 300$, so if you want to put him down, do it now (please dont)

Sounds like a good case a VETERINARIAN should deal with.
