The inference is that the feet themselves are sick, which still doesn't quite explain why you would equate "sick feet" with "bandages". Terrific, befuddling image.
I'm not sure which is more terrifying: The confidence with which the boy asserts that the leopard's fate is under a circus tent or the look of ABSOLUTE HORROR on the face of the little girl, who seems to expect that they will both be eaten whole in the wake of the boy's comment.
I have always wanted to be in that chair, in that hollow, with that fire and that food. And then fall asleep reading that book. Whatever it is. It doesn't matter. Genuine comfort, this.
