Trap Me If You Can! (Summer 2014)

August 9, 2014 / Dana / Newsletter

Amazing Cat Trapping Tails!

As we enter into summer, the feral moms and kittens emerge in increasing numbers, and CC4C’s year-round humane trapping efforts ramp up.

Our goal: to round up the kittens while they’re young enough to tame, and to spay/neuter the reproducing adults to stop the overpopulation cycle. Trapping is also sometimes necessary to rescue homeless tame cats that that are too frightened and mistrustful to be handled. But the following are unique trapping events, demonstrating some of the extremes involved in trying to catch the hard-to-catch. Enjoy these glimpses of the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat among CC4C’s intrepid trappers.

Every trapping project has its particular difficulties:

  • Trapping “stakeouts” in cold, wet weather (prime trapping time is winter).
  • Police suspicious of someone sitting in a dark car with binoculars.
  • Difficult terrain and unfriendly neighborhoods or neighbors.

But the following are unique trapping events, demonstrating some of the extremes involved in trying to catch the hard-to-catch. Enjoy these glimpses of the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat among CC4C’s intrepid trappers.
