Sorry for your loss. What did you bait the rat trap with? I haven't been successful in catching my weasel. I bought one of those heavy-duty traps but I can't set it by myself.
 
a rat trap works the best, its getting him in it that's the hard part, we used a chick as bait, the chick was encircled in a wire mesh that the weasel could not get through, put the chick in the trap at the end of a tube/box the weasel had to go into the tube over the rat trap to get the chick.

we baited it with blood of all things. a friend told of catching a porcupine that chewed it's leg and bleed in the trap and for weeks afterwards they kept catching weasels coming to lick the blood. (the blood was donated by a squirrel)
