Trapping Strategies - Let's Learn about Drop Traps

Regular humane metal box-style traps work in most situations, particularly when used with the proper planning and strategies. If you need tips on using the standard box-style traps more effectively for certain cats, email tnr@treehouseanimals.org and we can brainstorm with you. Regular box-style traps are available for rent from both Tree House Humane Society and Paws Chicago.

Drop Traps:
A drop trap is a special kind of humane trap. Right now our drop trap is on loan to someone. Ours looks similar to the one in the video, and is non-folding. It was graciously built for us recently by Brian. Thank you Brian! Below the video are links to instructions in case you want to build your own. http://www.droptrapdesign.blogspot.com/ If you have one that you can loan out to others, please let us know. Watch a special video on a drop trap here.
