Well!! Here is Valentino after returning this morning from the vet, with a large blue bandage to keep his leg immobilised so that the bones can heal properly.
This is the second bandage to be tried, as the one put on yesterday only lasted until this morning as he had managed to wriggle out of it. Luckily he did not have to be operated on, as the x-rays showed that trying to pin the bones was not an option, and that by immobilising the leg the bones should knit together on their own.
As you can see he is receiving lots of 'mummy cuddles' and has already had a new bed to make sure he is comfortable during his recuperation. This and plenty of parsley and other nice herb treats are taking his mind off of his big blue bandage.
