So, Pip's foot is broken. One of his "finger" bones. But the others will splint it, so no treatment is necessary. He's on painkillers for a week, and is hobbling, but should be fighting fit in a few weeks.
The cut on his chin is scabbed over now as well, which is good. Hopefully he'll be able to clean himself and start feeling better. When I found him he was dirty and covered in leaves, cowering in a bucket, and he'd never been outside before. Must've been horrible.
He woke me up at 6.30am and demanded cuddles and strokes for 45 minutes, which is a nice way to find out that he's feeling a bit cheerier.
