Getting ready to trap at a LV casino/ hotel

Several weeks ago the Focus on Felines was able to work with the hotel management on implementing a TNR (trap, Neuter & return) program.

We began by setting up several feed stations in discreet locations on the hotel property.  The locations were picked after taking a tour with management.  He was able to let us know where the cats had been seen the most.  After setting up the feed stations volunteers and Bf staff monitored them for three weeks.

(If is possible you should  start feeding a couple weeks before trapping to insure the cats are of a good weight for surgery as well as getting them used to eating in a set place. This helps a lot when trapping.)

 I will pull the food at least a day before I set the traps. I then will  I bait the traps with yummy but really stinky Salmon or maybe some Mackerel.  Because they  will be good and hungry, they should have a hard time resisting my tempting offerings.

Now that we know where all the cats are; we will begin trapping.

 I will be trapping for two nights I hope to catch as many as a dozen cats with this first effort.  I will be documenting this effort with video. (Coming soon to a theater near you!  J )
