A Comforting Face

SH, he is Gourgeous with a capital G!! You're lucky you're on the other side of the pond or there would be an attempted heist

Seriously though, he's beautiful, I've always had a soft spot for the Siamese, and I love the name, Zero. I'm sure that when he's feeling better he'll be flying around the house like one too

How is he drinking? And has he been to the toilet, if so how is it? All are important factors. However, he looks in good shape aside from the thin-ness, so I think the forum has got itself a new mascot to stand up there with old Niki.

Have you already been to a vet's with him?

Yeah, I had him checked out. His back leg is injured and possibly broken. The vet, whom I didn't care for, never elaborated on his injuries. His tail will heal, but it will be bent partially. Fortunately, I've still got a good enough memory to recall in the military how to properly dress a wound with bandages. I'll need to clean them, though, with either alcohol or liquid surgical soap (I'll probably go for the soap since it's less painful).

I can recommend Hibi-scrub, that's what we use on wounds. And don't use standard human disinfectant, it's poisonous to animals.

Love Wallie, he's beautiful, we've got a little Lhasa/Tibetan terrier called Sue, and a Collie/Lab called Max, as well as five cats

Would never, ever be without an animal companion, I've met more nice animals in this world than I have humans, that I can say

Do they sell that scrub at Wal-Mart?

It's possible, being in the UK I'm not so sure, either that or the local chemist/drug store might have something. Failing both of them, the vet might be able to tell you where you can get some or an equivalent.

I'll look into that. Thanks for the heads-up.

@Oberon

He's become quite a sneaky little devil. Took him outside for a bit of exercise, and he made an escape attempt. Managed to catch him thankfully.

I don't know if I've ever mentioned it on the forum before, but I've also had a dog for nearly 7 years now. Meet Wallie (sorry for the red-eye; makes him look like a demon dog):
