I'll be driving out to the hospital to visit him tomorrow. I'll probably take some dry Cheerios or Cheez-its with me (he LOVES those) and see if I can tempt him with those.
Oh yes, as to what is wrong. We think that one of the grownups might have bitten him a little too hard during play and it got infected. There's no abscess and he never acted as if he had a wound or anything, so I don't think anyone was out to hurt him (my cats are not generally like that), but these things do happen.

Oh poor guy
Glad to hear he's getting better.
