[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3703215, member: 15054"] Foot hold trap works for me and usually only hurts the toes for a bit. Never had one break a bone even on a chicken leg. But know this a wild cat that is not used to being touched will NOT want to be touched. I caught one in a trap after I got the kittens of hers in the trap and blocked 1/2 of it off. I took the things to the pound and told the lady do not let that mother cat out as it is a wild cat and it will try and kill you. That thing was ferocious when I went to pick up the trap biting on the wires and trip plate. I told that lady 3 times do not let it out and she said 3 times it is just scared I am a professional it will be fine. Big glass room and she let it out and I was outside the room. That cat climbed up her leg and claws trying to scratch her wide open that lady could not get out of that room quick enough. Blood running down her arms and neck and face. I told her that is a wild cat not a tame one. Bet she thinks twice before she does that again when warned. But she knows best as she works at the pound and does this all the time. I got my cage and left. Of course another lady there got a med kit and was taking care of here before I left. Be aware you may be opening a huge can of worms. Maybe feed it some medicated food if there is such a thing for cats. [/QUOTE]
