The cat that has the broken leg is in my yard again .. we use "that" to specify the cat with the borken leg and not any other cat...
the cat , which has the broken leg, is in my yard again --> this means all cats have broken leg .. thats not correct .. So which cannot be used here.

Just remove modifier 'which' and re-read whether it make sense
if sentence does not make sense and sounds incomplete then essential modifier 'that' is needed.
The cat that has broken leg is in my yard again.
The cat is in my yard again <== does not give additional information about what kind of cat.
