Cattleya arrived with chopped off, pitted leaves... what would you do?
Default Cattleya arrived with chopped off, pitted leaves... what would you do?

Hello, everyone.
Recently, I purchased a Cattleya, in bud, from a large mail-order company.
I admit to being disappointed when I unpacked it.
It looked as if the leaves had been yanked off the pseudobulbs, and the edges of several leaves had brown pits.

The orchid did bloom, and I am happy with the flowers, but I don’t know what to do with the plant.
Should I cut off the pseudobulbs and bad leaves?
Should I just trim the bad edges?
Is this even considered healthy?
What would you do?
I have uploaded a couple of photos.
Advice would be much appreciated, and thank you in advance for taking the time to reply.
