Good for you for having the compassion that many people don't! As has been said before, cats will almost always respond to food....canned is probably more enticing, however, dry will last longer without spoiling. Also, please be sure to have clean water for it. Cats need water so much, as do all animals, and so many times people forget that. It will take some time for the cat to trust you, but it will soon realize that you are "the hand that feeds it" and that in itself will keep it coming back to you. Be very careful, however, if you do progress to the point of being able to interact with it, because wild cats can carry diseases, and being scratched and/or bitten wouldn't be good for you, needless to say! All the best and keep us animal lovers posted!!
