With her being so friendly, she has to be someone's cat. But it's possible it's maybe an elderly or disabled person's cat and they can't really care for her.
I'm glad you were able to help her. That paw looked bad.
Hope you can find her a new place.
My experience has been that adult cats who spend a lot of time outdoors don't adjust well to being fully forced to stay inside.
That's probably a lot of her being restless. But it's definitely risky to let your cat wander around outside.
High risk of getting hit by a car.
We also know there are bad people out there who hurt animals just because they can.
