    Help with catching scared cat

    Definitely a humane trap, though as someone said, someone needs to hang out and monitor the trap. If she's hungry she WILL go inside of it to get food. I would put her normal food in there, and not something new that she might not go for.

    Day 40 on feral kitten - not very much hope left

    Hi Zat. I have also socialied some ferals. I have done it in 0 days -1 month with 1-3 month old kittens. :) Except one. She has taken 5 months and was only about a month old when we "met"!

    Completely clueless

    You don't really have to worry about diseases (unless scratched/bitten)...just wash your hands after an interaction. Be careful not to try to pick up a cat that is even a little bit nervous. I do test runs when picking a cat up for the first time...1 foot off the ground, then back down they go...

    It all started with 1 little kitten :)

    Hi and thanks for the comments! The $50 is just a deposit they give back when I return the traps. I have captured all 4 kittens, and there are 7 grown cats outside that need to be trapped.

    A feral's first pettings

    OH Thank you!!! I made a string toy the other day to touch my new feral kittens (just caught 2 more). I wasn't sure it would help, but I'll keep at it, since you had success.

    It all started with 1 little kitten :)

    A feral 2-month kitten showed up in my yard, so I set about catching her. I did, and now she's part of the family. While I was working on this, more kittens came into view. Working with 2 currently (ugh also caught the older sister and mother, and they're not happy).  Long story short, there are...
