Hi i was wondering if anyone had any advice on catching a stray. The cat that i am trying to catch seems to wander through my backyard every now and then. I've even seen him in broad daylight wandering around my neighborhood. I know that a lot of people advise leaving food out for the cat to get it to get used to coming back and then using a trap to catch it. However the problem right now is that whenever I leave food out, the next morning ants are swarming all over it. And to my knowledge the cat has never eaten any of the food. Does anyone else have any suggestions as to what I can do to get the cat accustomed to coming to my house every night so when it is time to trap it, I can know where to set the trap. Or a way to keep the ants away? besides poison because i don't want to poison the cat by accident T__T.
PS: this is kinda urgent because i couldn't tell if it was intact or not and my sister said she recently saw another possibly stray cat running around and so i want to prevent the possibility of a litter.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
