HUMANELY TRAPPING CATS
One of the best ways to help homeless cats is to get them spayed or neutered to prevent the proliferation of more homeless kittens and cats. But first, of course, most must be humanely trapped before they can be delivered to the vet for their surgeries.
The Feral Cat Coalition of Oregon has an excellent instruction sheet on how to trap cats. Visit https://www.feralcats.com/trapping-instructions. If you would like to print out the instructions, click on this link: trapping basics. Please note that these instructions were written with the intent that the cat would be fixed at the FCCO spay/neuter clinic in Portland, but they apply to any cat-trapping endeavor.
No cat should ever be trapped before you have an appointment with a vet clinic.
