Bruce's trapping
« on: January 21, 2016, 09:19:25 PM »
Well, everyone else is posting pictures of cats so I thought I would put one up I caught today.
I had a few sets out in December but came down sick the day after I started so the few traps I had set kind of got the drive by checks even when they needed some fixing. Finally pulled them and have not trapped since because of other commitments.
Monday though I went out and set some traps and today one of them payed off with a very soggy tomcat. I was a little soggy too. What a rainy day! Just cat sets out except for on otter set.

Bruce is your Cat population seem to be better, I know last year you thought it might be on the decline.

Lots of cat sign over here this year, probably the most I've ever seen.

I think cat population is way down. The mountain beavers are gone so what do they eat. Never see a rabbit. I used to catch multiple cats at a set. Now I pull the set after one catch.
