RSPCA CAT TRAP GUIDE
If it becomes necessary to trap a cat then the following procedures should be carefully followed to ensure the cat is treated humanely. Any ill-treatment of cats may be an offence under the Animal Welfare Act and be subject to prosecution.
1. Use only approved humane cage traps such as the Pestrol Cat Trap. Do not use leg-hold or body-grip traps or snares.
2. Ensure the cage is suitably covered to provide any contained cats with protection from the elements.
3. Ensure the cage is regularly checked (at least twice per day) so that caught cats are not caged for extended periods.
4. Ensure that any caught cats are provided with sufficient food and water. If the cat is sick or injured, seek veterinary treatment.
5. Any lactating cat caught in a trap should be released, unless the kittens can also be located and removed as well.
6. Check any caught cats for identification and contact the owner. Note: Some cats may be identified with a microchip; which can only be read with a scanner – available at most vets and Council / Shire Rangers.
7. If the cat is not identified endeavour to locate the owner by door knocking / Letterbox drops in your local area.
8. If the owner cannot be located then endeavour to rehome the cat (eg. advertise, contact Cat Haven, contact RSPCA, check your local vet). 9. Do not relocate the cat and release it in the bush or elsewhere. Abandonment is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act.
10. In the event, the cat needs to be destroyed then take it to your local vet for humane euthanasia. Do not destroy the cat yourself – as techniques such as striking, gassing, poisoning and drowning are unacceptable and may constitute an offence under the Animal Welfare Act.
If in doubt – contact your local RSPCA for further advice.

Great product, easy to assemble with the video, and collapses easily fits back in the cardboard box.

Easy to set up and already worked to catch the nuisance cat that’s keeps coming into the yard. Wrapped mine with a tarp and ocky straps for a bit of shade for the animal. Great product.

Great trap. Works well and the fact that it folds flat for storage is a bonus

No luck so far, but we’ll persevere with trying to trap the feral cats. Cage is strong and the mechanism is easy to set up. Exit door opens easily from the outside. Cage is a lot smaller than those provided by Council

Having some trouble with the traps going off too easy or not at all. Have tried 6 times with 2 traps on our local feral cat colony of 20 plus cats.
One cat broke out of the trap, via the back door, bending it out of shape. Have caught one 10 mth. Age kitten who did not fight the trap.
We tightened the triggers slightly but they still got the yummy fish without setting it, or it was triggered with the food still in it.
It is a bit small for adult cats.
Any advice to aid my success?

Delivery was prompt. Instructions for setting up fairly easy. I have not captured a feral cat as yet. The trap is a bit smaller than I expected and I’m not sure if it will cope with a large, angry cat similar to one I caught in a different trap.

Needed to adjust the spring to give the plate a hair trigger. Easy enough to work out how to do that.

I’m happy to have bought the trap. Caught the feral that was destroying the habitat the first night.

Good Humane item – light weight and strong

A good trap no cats but 2 bad birds. To bend the set trigger is very hard – in the position of the cage that it’s in.
