Is the Wyoming sale a similar format to other western sales? Sealed bid? Is there a web site with more info and past results? Thanks.

How much higher can the cats go before they hit the brick wall? Almost like high stakes poker holding those high dollar cats.

bearcat, which word don't I understand? And mind you I don't doubt you for a minute...thumbing through the dictionary there's skads of 'em. LOL



I heard that FHA plans to hold fresh cats over for their June sale. I wonder with the recent interest in the cat market if that is good strategy or if they might change that to take advantage of a hot market?

George will buy 2000 to 3000 cats this season. A $2800.00 cat won’t affect his overall average one iota.

Go ahead and tell me I’m wrong. That’s fine. I stand by what I said. You and I have locked horns before. This won’t be the last time.

Have a good evening writing your rebuttal.



I am not going to debate you the reasons why the cat brought what it did because this is a public forum and I will not expose the in and outs of how the cat market works.You said George bought the cat for his ego. I am saying that is not the case.

I am guessing he can write the price of the top lot cat off as advertisement. Every cat trapper in the NW know what he paid for that cat and some will ship or drive over to get more for theirs.

So Slick, you're saying that buyers don't like to go down on record of having bought the top cat on a hot cat market? That seems to go against human nature.

Not trying to debate you here....I'm sure you know more about the ins and outs of the cat market than do I.


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

3000 cats @ $465 = 1,395,000



$1,395,000 + $2800 ÷ 3001 = $465.77

Our trapping association puts on an amazing sale. There was a big lesson learned by a few trappers. At the bobcat sealing in Vegas, there was a buyer offering a $720 average on cats. Some sold to get away from paying commission (which make no sense to me since our association has stopped many attempts to ban or greatly restrict trapping), and some sold because it seems like a great deal. I told the guy I was going to Fallon but he still wanted to make an offer. He started at a $700 average and moved up to $775. I still declined. Ended up almost doubling that at the sale. Bottom line.......

SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL TRAPPING ASSOCIATIONS


If traps work like the Antis say......I would have no fingers.

Curious why did you attend the tagging with no intention of selling ? I agree that trappers should support their trapper associations if they care to but still you are free to choose what you wish to do.

I'm assuming because he had to have his cat hides sealed.
