Sure enough a nice one in your picture. I like it when their backs are spotted up like that. We dont get many like that here.
12 inchs is kinda small in my opinion if thats 12 inchs across. Cats dont like to back up. They turn around instead.
If you want a flag just cut a piece of white tshirt or bed sheet about an inch and a half wide and 6 inchs long. Put a brown stain on the bottom made from Carmens magna glan. a wad of polyester fiber fill is cheap and works too

I catch more cats where they can walk thru than I do in cubbies. My vote would to be to leave it open and trap both ends

Do you have cattails? Bobcat magnet. I didn't know that. As for the culvert, maybe try putting part of a beaver in it

Savell- that is a beautiful cat! Wow!
We don’t have cats here. They are expanding territory rapidly and about 30 miles away. Not legal to keep here at all. Hopefully if I live a while yet, might see one.

Do you have cattails? Bobcat magnet. I didn't know that. As for the culvert, maybe try putting part of a beaver in it I stumbled onto it when I started catching cats in coon trails through the cattails. (220s) After the coons are caught just leave the traps there. Cats like birds and birds roost in cattails along with rabbits and mice. I've also caught cats in coon trails going thru culverts under a road. In tall grass.

Do you have cattails? Bobcat magnet. Those are good here as well. Our water is way down again and any drainage coming out of them dry or otherwise. Also the back side of beaver dams where the overflow cuts a line. Dry or otherwise. Some cages will go out after the holidays long in dry creek beds with lots of grass up along the banks. Osky

how big are the ones you use lawdog? I look for them with about the same opening of a 30 gallon grease drum. I’ll measure some when I get home later today sitting on someone at the hospital now.
