Can you syringe some slippery elm syrup into him? That might help calm whatever digestive issues he's having. Here is a recipe:

: Into a small saucepan place 1/2 cup cold water and 1 teaspoon powdered slippery elm bark. Whip with a fork. Bring to simmer over low flame, stirring constantly. Simmer 1 or 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Cool and refrigerate. Keeps 7 or 8 days. Give a teaspoon of syrup (5 cc) for an average-size cat (again, about 10 pounds)

Also, not sure what vet food you're using, but if they have Eukanuba Maximum Calorie, it's the highest calorie wet food out there at over 300 cal/can. Could help get some extra energy in the poor guy. Not all clinics carry it though.
Alternatively, if you put some Wellness in a blender and then push it through a sieve, it should be smooth enough to syringe feed.
Come on Malcolm, you can do this!!
