Interesting study out now on how cats are draw to sit in marked squares areas. Will many future bobcat sets include a square guide around trap? I'm going to have to experiment some to see. Always looking for those behaviors that can be exploited(that's trapping IMO).


I've learned enough thru the years to now know that I don't know enough. KNOWLEDGE IS FREEDOM.

I saw that as well. An entire floor to sit or lay down on and they choose a taped off square, lol. I’ve never intentionally set for cats, they just seem to clog up my coyote sets. May try something like that in the future though. It can’t hurt.

They were indifferent to circles until four were placed in a square position then they sat in the middle. Back in my youth "beatniks" claimed "cats" didn't like anything square.
