I looked on your profile but didn't see the pictures. Maybe try uploading again?

It sounds like he is doing better. If he is feeling well enough to give you attitude, then that is a good sign! They are very good at sulking. Once when I was cleaning Grif's tank, she got very grumpy at me. I always put her in a critter keeper while I clean her home. Usually she will look at me when I talk to her, but that day she kept turning away from me. So I rotated the carrier so that she was facing me. She glared at me for a second, then she stood up, very deliberately rotated 180 degrees and plopped her butt down. I hope Pocket continues to heal. Keep him warm and with as little stress as possible. He is in good hands!
