I would put the bird in a hospital cage for a couple of days to get over the shock, Give it some spark. Then I would keep it in a small cage till the wing heals, IF it has a broken wing.
TRAP the CAT and take it to your local council., a menace like that should not be roaming the street. It will come back again and again and again.

The vitamin product is recommended to give a pick up to birds who have had a shock or who are unwell. So I would say that is the go.
