My cat is limping please help

Hello, I have a six year old cat who is limping on his back leg. Whenever I pick him up so I can look at it he meows at me or if I even lightly touch the paw he winces. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do please help me 

I would take him to the emergency vet.

Your cat needs to be seen by a vet. I know it's Sunday but call the vet office anyways and the after hours voice mail message will tell you where to go for emergencise. Or find a local vet ER here: http://www.veccs.org/index.php?option=com_hospitals&nationid=1&Itemid=193

My personal rule is to take the cat to the vet if anything seems off with behavior or appetite or something unusual shows up on the body. Depending on how serious it is, I either make an appoitment with the vet or take my cat to the vet ER right away. A bald red spot on the body can wait for a regular appointment but limping and meowing in pain is something I would immediately take my cat to the vet ER.

Plaese don't try to treat the paw at home. You have no idea what is wrong with the paw and trying to fix it may make it even worse.
