I've been trying to trap an injured feral cat for two days now with no luck and I could really use some advice. The cat is cared for by a couple and he spends time in their yard and a shed they have set up for the cats. The cat was in the shed when I got there two days ago but once he saw me hauling traps he took off. I don't know if he's been back but I've stayed away today in hopes that he will come back with me gone.
He has an injured leg and possibly one or more injured paws. His caretakers say that his paws look really bad and one paw/leg is swollen and he is limping badly. He did however climb a fence to get away from me and my traps.
I've had three traps set baited with Fancy Feast or tuna and not caught this cat or any of his friends. I thought about baiting with sardines tomorrow. Any other suggestions?
I'm worried that every time I come to check the traps I scare him away if he's nearby. How long do you guys think I can safely leave the traps?
I really didn't think I'd have this hard of a time catching him. Any suggestions for how to get him would be greatly appreciated. This little guy is suffering and needs to get to the vet.
