Trapping a Feral Cat
Havahart® brings you some helpful guidelines to follow when trapping stray cats: -
Locate the cage in an area where stray cats are often observed.
-
Place the cage on a level surface.  -
Position the cage against a wall of a building or in a path commonly traveled by the cat.
-
After setting the cage, it maybe helpful to place the included cover over the cage. Cats often venture into enclosed areas.
-
Remove yourself from the immediate area.
-
Check the cage as often as possible.
-
After the cat has been caught, place the cover over the cage. This helps to calm the cat.
-
Please do not allow children or pets near the cage.
-
Check with veterinarian/humane league to determine if you may feed/water the cat before you relocate. Follow the instruction for Placing Food and Water in the Cage.
-
If you choose to relocate the animal into a carrier or crate, the carrier should be large enough to place inside it a small food and water bowl along with an 8x8 tin foil pan for litter.
-
When transporting the cat in a car, place a trash bag or tarp under the cage. Keep the cage covered. Please do not transport the cat in the closed trunk of the car. Share |
