OMG we have toes!

[bunn]

Just taken Mollydog in for rebandaging again, and she has come back with toes visible on all 4 feet!    I haven't seen the toes on the affected leg since August.   At long last she is no longer a partial Pobble*. 

She's supposed to start putting weight on it now, but persuading her to do that when the leg is so wasted is not that easy.  At the moment she's basically using it only as a parking brake. 

* does anyone remember a children's book in which the Pobble sets out to reclaim his toes? I'm sure I remember one quite clearly, but Amazon knows it not.

That's the original poem by Lear, the book was a followup, with the Runcible Cat with crimson whiskers playing an important role. My memory is that it was a sort of whodunnit, but I can't remember if they ever found the toes.
