Thanks guys but I'd have to trap him before I can get him to a vet. So far he been to smart to be trapped, I've tried. He never come down from the oak tree, that we have ever seen, except for the roof where I been feeding him. Honestly I don't belive he's in pain from the paw thing, if you saw it, you can see that he has been like this for years, my opinion from what I seen.

Could you keep yours inside until you can work on winning this ones trust and capturing him
I'm afraid that won't work. With all the damage to our home from the hurricane, house space is at a minimum. The cats are now on rotating inside time as well as the dogs, till we can repair. We all had to give up somethings because of the damage.


But at this point I don't think it matters much any more, last night all H#@L broke loose with him and the dogs. So at this point I don't know where the stray is. Never had a problem with my dogs and cats before, but for some reason they didn't want this cat around. I'm going out today to see if I can find him.
