Markings:	Back leg is lame. This could be from a recent incident.
Circumstances:	In our back garden where it seems to be staying, perhaps because the lame back paw is preventing it from returning home?
Other info:	CAT TALE - DAY 1 I first noticed "Kitty", as I've dubbed him/her, curled up on an open grass area in our back garden 3 days ago. I thought it odd for a cat to sleep in such an exposed area as they usually curl up in more of a protected spot. It is not one of the cats I usually see around our back yard, so I approached Kitty to see if it was a friendly one that wanted to say "Hi". Alas, no hellos. The cat got up immediately and limped towards the garden wall. It had a lame back paw but could walk on the other 3 paws. Kitty doesn't appear to be unkempt and has clean fur and bright eyes. The only issue seems to be the lame leg. CAT TALE - DAY 2 Yesterday, I spotted the cat again. Now I noticed it's back paw was shaking badly. Kitty had found a sheltered spot to take refuge in a nice bed of straw in our garden. I offered out a bowl of water and later on took photos. Last night, Kitty was still in the sheltered spot and we offered a box to sleep in and some pieces of lamb from my husband's supper. CAT TALE - DAY 3 When my husband checked at 7:30AM, Kitty was still in the box. I checked at about 9:30AM and Kitty was nestled deeply in the cardboard box. It doesn't look like any of the water has been lapped up, but some of the lamb is gone (hopefully in Kitty's tummy). I have more photos I can send if it would help.
