Also remember to keep your own health in mind when dealing with feral cats, especially ones that seem ill.  Make sure to wash your hands after coming into contact with a feral cat.  If the cat appears to simply be malnourished, do not attempt to bring it inside, but consider leaving food and water out for the cat to eat and drink when you aren’t around and it feels more comfortable. If the cat seems seriously ill or injured, do not approach it.
