That's a wonderful offer. This cat is scared of everything (and rightly so) and is lightning fast.

I prefer to just leave a trap overnight with some yummy food, and be able to trap it that way.

(I'm also really embarrassed at how cluttered my house is right now.

When I got divorced, I moved from a 4 bedroom, 3 bath flat, into a studio apartment in a basement. I'm still in the process of getting rid of as much stuff as possible, but it's hard. It's my whole life in here.)

Well my BIL has a father who is a hoarder I can ask him if he of someone he knows can try to get the kitty and bring it somewhere else

I'm going to try some of those traps, but I have to admit that I laughed WAY too hard at those bloopers! LOL

The cats were looking pretty smug. Very Happy

You can make a simple deadfall trap with something sturdier than cardboard. Like a plastic rubbermaid box or similar.

But yeah, the end of the video was pretty funny. LOL

I have a sturdy, long and narrow box that I made into a trap, and set it along the wall where he tends to run around.

I put in a soft blanket and a bowl of wet food. Nothing happened last night, but I have a feeling that in a few days he'll be hungry enough to check it out. I'll make sure that the food is fresh, and maybe put some fresh fish in there as well.

Meanwhile, the exterminators are getting back to me, and so far they are all saying that they don't catch wild cats, it's the city's job. Banging head
