I live in Malta, and Moorish geckos are quite common in here.

This morning I found a badly hurt one, most probably after an attack by a cat. It lost its tail, is injured on its head and front limb, and has lost its eye clarity (seem to be bruised).

It can hardly move, I washed it clean with some warm water and dried it and put it in a tank with a temperature of around 85 F. Any suggestions on what else I can do to help this poor critter?

A visit to the vet is out of question since in here there are no vets specialised in herps.
