kitty alert update, das Schempenpawb (~) 

I lured him in with a little food, gave him a good petting, and had the best look I could at the injured pawb.

He's hesitant to put any weight on it, but not totally refusing to touch things with it. And he didn't react at all when I gently petted the area just above it, so I don't think it's a leg issue or anything.

No sign of an infection, blood, or massive swelling, at least at a glance. So I'm hoping he just got a little bumpie and needs a couple days.

I think if he's still limping by Sunday night, we spend Monday looking for a mobile vet or asking the local vets how to best transport an injured kitty.

Sigh. Dammit Shemp. I'd do anything for you. Just LET ME DO IT. I wish I could just ask you what happened.
