No picture available, of course, as this was some years ago. I baited it with tuna per instructions, then tried raw liver. That trap really looked out of place in the surroundings, but it might have fooled a cat. It didn't, but might have.
I'm guessing Mooch ran around 10 pounds, but I never got a hand on her. Her boy, Barney, ended up at close to 20, mostly fat.
Quote:Another thought -- how big is/was Mooch? I have noticed that the cats that come in with the feral program tend to be on the smaller side. I'd chalked it up to selective pressures, but maybe our traps don't work as well on big ones...
Perhaps the little cats, the scrawny ones dine well below the salt--or whatever passes for salt in the wild. Also, better-nourished cats might have better nourished brains.
