A New Setup.  Feral Cat Capture in the newest Comstock 10x8x36 panel trigger trap.

Had a trapper take a bunch of feral cats in pan traps, but one was too smart for the pan.  He probably had been caught before and would actually sleep inside of the trap.

The new Comstock traps have a panel trigger that works like the wire trigger cages, same principle.  The trapper in this case tried something innovative and new.  Instead of using the trigger in the intended manner as a push through trigger, he clipped the panel back and used a stick as the trigger to replace the panel.  By propping a stick up under the trip rod part of the trap, the door was held open.  He then put some of the new Gary Jepson Cat Rub lure on the stick.  The cat walked into the cage, brushed up against the stick as you would expect and was caught first night!
