It does sound like Pumpkin is in a fair amount of pain. The best thing to do is take him to a vet as soon as possible. It doesn't appear to be an emergency, but good if he goes to the daytime vet within the next 24 hours. The vet can help locate the problem and at-least give him some pain medication.
