You can use .cur directly, but for animations Mousecape wants the multiple frames of animation stacked in a column into a single image.

This page (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=151153) shows how to convert the .ani into a series of .ico files (the number corresponds to how many frames of animation the .ani had). Then it becomes a case of using an image editor to open the .ico files and stack them into an image.

Or if you are handy using terminal and assuming you have ImageMagick installed, you need two commands:

magick morgify -format png *.ico

and

magick convert * -append result.png

The first command takes all the .ico files and makes .png files. If you put the resulting png files into a separate folder, you can use the second command to automatically make the required vertical stack.

Thus you get this:
