lol how far away is your barn (and cats!) ... i want to put ours our trap down by our barn with some soft cat food, but i don't want the barn kitties to get caught and left out in the rain, or whatever...

oh, guessing 50-70 feet from the backdoor

Getting caught and left out in the rain is probably the cause for them to avoid the trap and moist food though............

Those crazy kitties can learn new tricks......... coons on the other hand......

If you want to avoid your cats getting caught in there just dont put cat food in teh trap (or meat) they have a major sweet tooth. take advantage of it

Yeah IDK, our coon doesn't seem to like marshmellows... the cats stole them LOL instead

I have never caught any cats but I did have a scrub jay get caught while trying to steal food from the trap

He didn't like it very much, but considering he keeps trying to get in at my quail to eat/ kill them the twit deserved it. Him and his mate already killed the mocking birds babies that were nesting in the neighbors tree.
