Being unable to pass urine or poo is quite serious so it would be best to see a vet as soon as possible. Try feeling gently under the body to see if he feels bloated or if there is any staining. There can be various causes including twisted bowel, urine unfection, tumours, crystals in the urine so he really does need seen especially if you are not sure if he is straining to pee or to poo. Some things can be treated so have him seen.
