What did the Vet's attribute the scrunched up lower intestine to?

Jack just about every month may have diarreah occurance. 6 yrs old, all bloodwork ok. Xrays not sure thinks its ood or maybe colitis. When he's nauseous won't eat but I add water to what wet food I can and feed him. He won't eat pumpkin or boiled chicken. What can I do? Diarreah just 2 small puddles today. Better. Little wet food this morning which I added water to. Apparently it might be something I feed him. His dry food rabbit and chicken he nibbles at. Mostly eaten wet food since kitten. Friskies can and changed with fancy feast and no grain wet food. He loves the fishy ones. Is food the culprit? I'm worried when he lays around he doesnt pee much. Urine checked out ok. How long can cats go with just 1 small meal a day? He seems to be prone to this.
