is there a safe way I could leave a set trap out over night at the Elks Lodge?

I am not sure I would trespass in order to trap.  Is there a way the kittens can get out of the enclosure?  That way, you can set the trap and the food will draw them out.

Is there no one at the Elk's Club is willing to help you trap them?  It would seem silly for them to just let the kittens survive on their own.  They're going to end up with to many cats to count!

Oh, OK.  That's better.  So if you can't get inside the enclosure, can you set the trap just outside?  The kitten may be attracted to the food in the trap, especially if its stinky.  I would stay and watch the trap, though, because you don't want to catch another critter.

Good luck!  Poor baby, I hope he or she goes in the trap and gets a nicer life.

Kitten has been moved to the wooded feeding area from the enclosure. At moment I am playing moving my game camera to different feeding areas hopeing to catch the kitten on camera.hope to trap him/her before it gets too much older.
