I put my live trap out with all kinds of bait and he won't go in it. I've come home to find him sitting right next to the trap several times just looking at the bait and then me. Just lookin like he is laughing at me saying, "nice try." The other day I looked out the window and I had a squirrel in my smaller trap and he and another cat were both sitting there looking at it. I went to get my shoes on to move the big trap over there, looked back out the window and he was whoopin the other cat. There were big ***** of fur all over the ground. The other cat was bigger than he was too. I'm sure the squirrel was freaking out watching these two go at it just a few feet away. The two cats each went their way and I haven't seen them since. The trap just sits there empty. I'd love to shoot it but I know if any of my neighbors see me, they will call the law and I don't need that problem. He will eventually get hungry enough and get in that trap. Hopefully, anyway. My ego is starting to get hurt with this cat getting the best of me.

This thread is either full of the biggest baddest bikers (wanting to kill little Mary next doors pet)
Or, the biggest baddest bikers with small ***** syndrome (wanting to kill little Mary next doors pet)

I hope if you kill the poor cat, that all the mice and rats it ate invade your bedroom!

There was a pretty good post recently that explains the best way to de-cat your exhaust. I will go find the link and PM it to you.

I just want to thank the majority of the posters in this thread making my day. I have not laughed this hard in a looooong time. I especially like the summary from the OP about the cat continuing to outsmart his trap. LMAO!!!!

Put a bowl of water with some antifreeze in it placed where a dog can`t get to it, and where the cat feels "safe".

What a terrible and sick way to kill any animal. Even a dirty rat deserves a clean instant death. Use poison at least.

I have had luck with smart wary cats by placing the trap in a more private / location and partially covering it as well. Also I thoroughly clean the trap to remove the familiar smell from it, like other cats and death. Try some vanilla or even bengay ointment. a wise old trapper told me to use that for cover scent and for some reason they cannot resist it.
also you could try CBs or something in the .22 and sight it in for the exact range, lure it in and have patience. As it gets colder they will get hungrier and want to eat.
Another thing that works is place some food outside the trap but next to it, they will eat it and want more and are likely to go in the trap to get it. Sometimes you need to resupply the outside bait several times before they go in the trap.

Good luck with the nasty varmint ! Sounds like a feral cat and it needs to be snuffed.

It's funny how many suggestions of execution that have been offered here. Due to my location and surroundings, I can't shoot the cat, even though that would be my quickest means of solving the problem. Offering up an antifreeze cocktail is not something I would do. There has been poisoning problems in my town before and the outcome wasn't good for those who were caught. I prefer to restrict my lawbreaking to low class misdemeanors. He will eventually get in the trap and be relocated. Apparently he doesn't like the cheap Walmart brand cat food. Maybe I should try some catnip. Cats love that stuff. It's just a matter of time.
