Give each cat a name, as you’ll need names to check them in at a clinic. Cats that are not hungry will not go into traps.ĭocument the colony – Make a list of all of the cats you see, both regularly and irregularly, with a description and notation of any identifying features or any illness or injuries. It is also very important to let any other feeders know when you plan to trap, so they do not feed the cats prior to trapping. If you can get other neighbors on a feeding schedule, you will have the most success (and potentially a back-up feeder while you are out of town). It is well worth your while to talk to neighbors, ask dog walkers and the mail carrier and even flyer the neighborhood to find out who else is feeding. Never leave food out overnight as this will attract wildlife and also hinder your chances of trapping them.Ĭommunicate with other feeders – Cats often have more than one feeder. Remove any uneaten food after no more than one hour.
If you are leaving food out for extended periods of time, stop doing this.
Get on a feeding schedule – If cats congregate and eat at a regular time(s), they will be much easier to trap. Before you do any trapping, you will need to think through the project from beginning to end and make a plan.
