Live Animal Trap Cage Cover, Cat Trap for Stray Cats 32 Inch Folding Skunk Trap with Real Door for Raccoons, Opossums, Groundhogs, Skunks, Feral Cats, Squirrels (Only Cover)

This fit the trap well, and disguised a trap well enough for the animal to wander in. After I used it, the local animal shelter was happy to take it.

This thing is worth its weight in gold. We had a skunk under the house tearing things up and spraying... nightmare!My tips are:1. Secure the tarp well -otherwise the animal will shake it off (making the end phase much more difficult)2. Place it right at the entrance/exit of the house. He didn't go for it when it was 5 feet away.3. Block off other entrances/exits to the area (if you can). For me, it was taking away his other night feeding options. Luckily, mine was the house wall and a fence, so pretty easy to do that. Plus - if you don't, you will likely capture neighborhood cats. (We caught two of the them before we blocked it off). The other benefits are skunks are pretty nearsighted, so make it obvious for the critter...4. The successful bait was peanut butter and honey mixture (in a paper coffee filter).5. If you cover the cage with extra plastic tarps - you can then move the cage without him seeing you and our guy did not spray. We sealed up the opening in the house and were able to release him by opening the door with gloves on afterwards, about 25 yards away and he scurried out into the night. (Our animal control people said this was the recommended solution.)Good luck! You can do this... Why pay hundreds of $$$'s for a company to do this...?!

The fact that the back opens for placing bait was a feature I wanted. However, the skinny little bar that holds in shut is not strong enough. I finally caught the raccoon I was trying to get and it mangled the back, bent it open and escaped. I haven’t been able to catch it since then. I used carabiners to secure the back so that won’t happen again, should I actually catch the raccoon. I have been able to catch several skunks and I love that the waterproof cover protects me from spray. And because they can’t see me thru it, they generally don’t spray because they can’t see me as a threat. Over the course of time, several angry skunks have torn up the cover trying to pull it into the trap. I got a lot of uses out of it but now need to replace it. All in all it’s a decent trap at a decent price, but if you’re going to buy it, order carabiners along with it to secure the back so you don’t have the same problem I did.

I bought this trap to catch a mama cat and her 4 kittens. The kittens were young enough to be adopted but mama was too feral and so we TNR’d her. I now feed her on my back porch which is why I have also had to use the trap to rehome 3 opossums and 3 raccoons who kept eating her food and scaring her away.Trap was sturdy enough for cats and opossums. I had to fortify it though for raccoons who can do a real number on a trap. I had one get out the release door so I had to use pipe cleaners to fully tie that exit off. That did the trick. However raccoon hands can get through the trap sides to get at the food without going in the trap. I bought a trap cover which solves that issue but if the raccoon is in the trap longer than 30 minutes they can tear the covers to shreds while trying to claw their way out. Learning curve for sure but the mama cat is worth the hassle.

This trap only worked twice before the mechanism that holds the door up (when the trap is set) stopped working.The instructions are extremely unclear about how to fix it so that it works.Unfortunately I missed the return window because this trap doesn't work.Also it didn't come with a cover at all.

Solid trap construction and the cover is perfect. Very helpful to have it covered for trapping and subsequent transport. You can lock the trap open, too.

I used the trap right away and it was easy to slip over cage. Now I can trap even if it is raining and it has just stopped raining when I put the cover on the trap. It worked the animal went right into the cage and I immediately took it to the animal rehabers. I did purchase another trap and cover to cover it too. The city tore down a burned out apartment complex and the rats, raccoon and possums have overrun the city.

It was effective in fulfilling its intended purpose of rescuing a frightened kitten at my workplace, a construction yard. However, it was challenging to prevent it from triggering prematurely. It required multiple attempts and considerable effort to get it to function correctly for this single use (at least for now).
