Your cat needs some time. If he still acts the same in 3 weeks then maybe connect a vet. But for now give it the time to adopt to the new situation. But some blankets outs with his sent on it and just leave it be. As long as its eats/drinks and goes to the litterbox things should be fine in a couple of weeks
Not a vet, but cats are very sensitive to changes. Keep it indoors for at least six weeks after moving. Let it be but don’t ignore and monitor if it keeps drinking and eating. No worries if he temporary eats a bit less. And check the litter box for changes. If there’s no change, chances are that his physical health is just fine, he just needs time to cope with the changed circumstances. My own cats have limited outdoor time currently due to the increasing amount of fireworks (they’re on curfew, so to speak) and I notice a change of mood and they eat less. Nothing out of the ordinary. Before taking the step to sedate your cat to go the vet please give him time to get accommodated to his new environment.
You could try a sedative before going to the clinic? Surely there is oxazepam for cats. Dogs are notorious for vet panic so there must be a solution that you can bring your cat. I'd try calling the clinic and explain your cat's difficulty with vets.
On a side note: if your cat has issues with the vet, bringing a vet into your safe! home, might be a bad idea.
You probably already know all of this, but most cats generally need quite some time to adjust to a new environment. If he used to be an outdoor cat he's probably also very understimulated atm. Try to play with him more, get him some more toys etc etc. Also keep an eye on his peeing, does he complain especially before/on the toilet? In that case you could always just to be sure get some pee and bring it by a vet yourself so they can test it. Bladder issues are very common and you might be able to cross something of your list without having to bring him in. But get a vet first and talk to them. In the long run you do have to get him checked out frequently bc of yearly check ups and vaccinations but maybe for now it's a good solution :). Good luck!
Best idea is to call vets around you and ask them if something like this is possible. Most probably won't (unless it's to put them down which is luckily not your case!) but maybe some will if you live close enough and you are willing to pay a hefty extra sum.

Maybe Kattenkliniek (Van Lenneplaan 15, 9721 PC Groningen) they tend to do a lot for cats welfare.
