3” pot without drainage

Repot, sprinkle some lime in the soil to boost alkalinity in soil, prune the dead parts off to boost growth
If you are simply plant sitting for him, keep an eye on the soil moisture level and that’s about it. Maybe put it by a window for indirect sunlight for a few hours a day. Just DONT water it unless it’s bone dry and wilting.
