It has an escalation clause for subsequent years. ;-) Originally Posted by cat_trapper_nv I’m only using Mikes trap pans next season. Doesn’t he guarantee 25+ cats using his pans? Don't be getting me into trouble now!!! The only thing I will gurantee is a quality product, shipped as quick as I can. Maybe for you guys ouit west they can come with a 25 beaver guarantee...that 25 of my beaver will still not be worth what one of your cats bring!

Then remove the chain and replace it with a shock spring between the swivels. Bend the dog down a touch, cut excess spring pins off. Trap with them till they get good and rusty then dye and wax.
