My neighbour came to the door tonight with a wild baby bird in a box, he said his partners relatives cat brought it home.
Poor little thing is not fully feathered, he asked my advice but I didn't really know what to do for the little thing
I gave him some egg food and told him to mix it with some luke warm water and try that, I also gave him the RSPB phone number.
Any advice anyone.....

Once a cat has had it, I feel that there is not much chance of it surviving at that young age. Keeping the poor thing warm and hydrated would be the best you could do.

Thanks Hezz, I'll ask him tomorrow how it is. Cats make me so angry sometimes.

Fingers crossed. I don't know what your vets are like but most here, the good ones, will check them over and hand them over to a wild life rescuer, which a person needs to be registered to do.
