Way to go looks like a big cat and well furred.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Thanks guys! Yes I love setting that location every year. Every cat that comes through seems to check out that boulder.

Pretty casty belly. We get really lousy belly cats in this part of the cascades.

I'm amazed you get a cat to go into a cage like that. Good job!


Just doing what I want now.

Good job !!! They’re starting to slowly get more active hopefully with some more snow on the way it’ll get them moving more
IMO cats are pretty easy to get to go in a cage of the right size

That’s been my experience too with the right bait and lure. Any luck on the marten or cat line for you Jake?

Cats have no concern or fear of tight areas. That is their world and actually prefer that kind of habitat. They know a prey species or what is on the menu, is much easier to catch in a limited confined space. How fast do you think it can turn around in that confined space? A split second. smile
