Cat question

A new cat showed up here. Semi-wild, but can be caught and handled. Young adult male.
He has a bad front leg. Looks like Bob Dole's right arm. It just hangs, and there is no muscle tone. Like maybe it was broken a long time ago and healed up without being set.
Poor cat gets around all right on the other three legs, but the left front he just holds up by his chest.
Any injury that may have caused it is long healed. Another thing we noticed is one pupil is bigger than the other, but he seems to see out of both eyes. I thought maybe brain damage, but wouldn't that affect the whole left side?
Any ideas? Should we encourage it to stay and treat it as our own? I offered to shoot it, but wife said NO! After thinking about it, my offer was premature. The cat is handicapped, but in no pain, so there is no misery to end.

Anything you do that may end up with them dead under you house could end up smelling worse than it does now.

Pepper spray
This would probably work if you sprayed it in the vents of your foundation...
They'll get the hint real fast.
Your best bet is to live trap them, ...a lot of cats dont care for sardines (raccoons love them though) so try some canned cat food....once you have the cats, board up under the house....if you kill them and dont get them out, you are in for an awful smell that you wont ever get rid of...you can get rid of the urine smell though after they are gone..
BR..not classic
22 pistol and a flashlight. Go Vietnam on their *.
What a idiot you are. You probably are afraid of cats and cry when they get close to you.
That's real macho peabrain. Another moron.
Call the animal shelter or animal control. They will loan you one of these Havahart traps.....no charge. [:)][:)]

Ive dealt with this very problem in the very same way. Bait it with canned cat food or some of mom's roast beef[:p], they'll go for that. The second one may be a little wary of the trap, so it may take an additional day or so.
What a idiot, you look like a towelhead POS.

I'm sorry softy, I didn't realize P.E.T.A members frequent this forum. I apologize for the graphic, gruesome, offensive picture of the dead filthy diseased cat.
