Whats your opinon on making a atrifial cat toilet? I know someone who raise bobcats and I could get dropings by the bucket ful. I was thinking on puting a few of these out a month before our season, any input from anybody?

can't see how it would not work well...

they are cats... the rule is... there are no rules.... five of them may walk right past it.. three of them may roll in it.... one might take a dump on it and go on...

anything goes on cats!

What about the litter box set? Anybody save their pet cats' litter? Save the turds,add a little urine until it becomes a paste and use? Cats are cats are cats!

It helps release the cat.

...and keeps you safe from getting clawed or bitten. Trappers have used a plastic garbage can the same way.

Natural walk through...



Close up. A call lure is smeared on the rock face (inside), trap where the smoothed out, step down is...



A view from the other side and a better picture of the "step down trail set."
Note the droppings, which with or without urine are optional!

Natural blocking using rocks on the above set, can be duplicated!

We have a lot of those natural walk through areas. I have not started this year yet, but will get some pictures for sure.

Even holes in rocks like this one, can be used as a natural cubbie, although only 8" in diameter, it offers weather protection for lure and/or bait. Trap is placed where the 'cat would stand to investagate. Natural guiding can be used for foot placement!



These natural cut banks under rock ledges, offer potection for ground squirrels, lizards, cottontails and pack rats. Bobcats know this and will hunt them accordingly!
