"Dumbledore has undergone x-rays which thankfully have shown no signs of being shot, which was one of our worries. However, vets have found he is suffering from pneumonia and he is currently receiving treatment for that," said Sue Levings of the RSPCA East Winch center in Norfolk.
"He is much more settled now and still looks very sorry for himself, but other than that he is quite lively. He is still very poorly but hopefully with further care and attention from the staff here at RSPCA East Winch he will continue to make a good recovery," she said.
