A plant mister might be the right "weapon" for you. Most things will back away from being sprayed. I am sure the cat has not forgotten so he might be waiting for you. Added bonus, if you run across something that is thirsty you can help out as well.
Cats will be cats, but you can't just stand by and not help a baby animal in trouble. I rescued a baby starling from a cat one evening. By the time I had the bird safely in hand it was dark so I had to bring the little one in for the night.
I went out at dawn the next day and set him down in the garden. He gave a cry and a mother starling in a nearby tree gave a cry of joy and came down to get him. She had waited all night worrying about him and refused to leave the area where she had last seen him. It was a sweet reunion.
