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!!
