I've always heard that you shouldn't leave a trapped cat for more than a

3 or 4am to set the traps. (I had to arrive at the spay clinic no later
than 6.30am) Good point Kelley makes about the clinics---I had a

Dear Chris
Bless you for helping these little sweethearts.
The wonderful former listmember Hideyo told me this trick years ago when

fact that, in her vast
Great news! If you can't get mama, it was suggested to us that we put a kitten
in carrier next to trap or tape kitten meowing and place tape recorder in or
near trap. We did not try this. It took me 4 days to get the last of a litter
of kittens after I trapped his mama nd 2

I used to leave the trap out for at least a week before setting it. I would

I am hoping against hope that mom cat will go in the trap tonight.. its my

I put a cut off yardstick under the door and through the openings on each

I always trap during the day and I always supervise the trap while it is set. I
am fortunate to be able to do this. I don't leave set traps unattended for the
