I hear indirectly that this incident got the attention of WDFW Enforcement. https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/fur-flies-in-neighborhood-after-trapping-of-errant-cat/

Interesting, MccAllum should be 'good to go' since she was advised by the animal control officer.

glad I live in the country, where coyotes eat all the stray cats that come try to kill my quail.

Good point, I see that now. I guess I found the wrong story after I heard about the incident. I will look some more; I heard it got press coverage.

Personally I think that "outdoor" pet cats are a nuisance and a menace to birds and other small animals and should be considered an invasive species. I have a pet cat, and if he ever ends up injured or killed in a trap or otherwise, that would be on me for letting him get out.
