Help-cat may have broken leg?

My neighbors have a 1 year old cat. This cat is so easy going, excellent temperament. This cat climbs up on roofs and tall fences and sometimes jumps from them. I noticed that in the area just above the paws and below the elbow/knee joint it was swollen. He was not putting any weight on it. When I tried to touch it, he jerked away. When I told my neighbor, they said they could not afford to pay a vet. Does anyone here know of something that we could do to help this cat's leg? I am just sick knowing he is hurt. If I had the money I would try to help. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks

    I'm really fed up of reading these questions where people cannot afford a vet. I know it's not even your cat this time and you are very kind but your neighbors shouldn't own a pet if they can't afford to take it to a vet. That is the answer though, the cat needs a vet. ASAP.

    Call some local vets and explain the situation. Some may be willing to help. Make sure you talk to the vet and not the vet's secretary.

    can you help them pay for the vet? i think this cat needs some medical attention one way or another, regardless of human pride.
