And what's this Nevada strech I keep hearing about? Are top lot strechers the best thing I can buy for both coyote and cats? Or should I be buying another adjustable strecher that is species specific? Thanks Ken Smith Matthew 7:6 KJV Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine.... -OFBA, NTA, FTA, TTFHA-

Yukon, from what I understand the nevada strech is when the belly board is used to pin the legs of the cat in to the center of the body making the belly look longer. I will order these strechers with the belly boards and try this out. Matthew 7:6 KJV Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine.... -OFBA, NTA, FTA, TTFHA-

On the adjustable top lot stretchers you can opt to buy the belly board that slips up the middle of the stretcher. If you don't want the belly board the adjustable top lot stretchers come with some corrugated plastic pieces which you can use to pin the tails.

These were homemade stretchers, not sure if the top lots come like this or not.
