important to understand animals (even "dumb" rabbits) learn about the trigger paddle after their friends get trapped.. so for better results, put a towel inside to cover it up
Thank you Michael! Yes, when I bought it, I had the same issue....I'm usually pretty good with instructions but had no idea how to set it up. So once I figured it out, I thought I'd just make a video to clearly show how to set it up. Best of luck Michael!
Omg thank you so much for this video! The little piece of paper the box gave me I didn’t understand anything. You made it so simple and straightforward thank you seriously
Thank you Tamara for the comment! I'm glad it helped! Yes I was confused too when I tried to learn how to set it up so I had to make my own video to show it simple and easy.
The best way is to open the back door. Just remove the steel pole at the back from the hinges and the back door will be able to open. Always use gloves too when working with catching strays/animals. I use cat gloves which are bite proof material.
Excellent video. The instructions with my Pet Republic trap (which looks just like this one) were pretty crappy. These visuals helped me tremendously. I am preparing trapping and spaying/neutering fetal cats in my community. Sadly, my trigger/step plate won't stay up and my trap keeps closing on its own. Looks like I may need to make some modifications. It's not working.
This is the most important video on the internet , the damn piece of paper that was suppose to be the assemble instruction is totally useless , thank you for the video.
You'll need to wear those animal gloves, then squeeze the latch in the front door inwards to raise the front cage door. The animal will be glad to run out. Another good idea is to cover the cage with a blanket to reduce stress and when the opening door opens, it'll be clear for the animal to see the way out.
Thanks for asking! For kittens that small you won't need a large cage obviously so any small trap cages will work just fine. Something like 16x6x6.25 inches or so. Here's an example on amazon: amzn.to/2VW3qKZ
Thank you!!!!! After battling the cage for an hour I was hoping I could find some help on RU-vid. I never would have figured it out!!! I live in a trailer park with many feral and kittens! My cute cats passed away over six months ago. So miss Elmer fudd is going hunting for kitties! ❤🐾💕😅
@@breakaway2x Yes, I know, but that would set me back at least 20 bucks or more, and such gloves would decrease my dexterity which I need in dealing with the door and latch...What I'm saying is that available in the market is a trap with a solid door which provides more protection. Also, what if you're dealing with a hissing mad skunk? Would "protective" gloves help you against such an animal?
@@ihytvm Well then, your only other option is to politely yet firmly ask the critter to leave Most of the time they will as long as you're nice about it
These small animal trap cages are a great way to catch feral cats, raccoons, squirrels, groundhogs, other small animals. This is a video to show you how to set up the cage. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
Thank you so much, I have received an instruction paper but still couldn't figure it out without looking at this video first! Wish me luck into catching the stray cat🍀
The one I bought is a Twocorn. Ridiculous chines interpretation of English instructions. Also, It appears that the rear door is to be permanently secured. This is what should be used to easily and safely release the animal. Any advise on this? Im not going to get near the mad animal to release the same way that it got in. I thinkl I actualy hit the dislike button but yur instructions were clear although my cage is different
trap cages should always have a back door access/ release open. If it really doesn't and it's welded solid, then the only way is to put on protective gloves (the long ones that go up your arms) and then open the cage from the front.
Thank you so much for this video. It helped me tremendously because the instructions was useless. I only have one question how do I safely release the animal once in the cage
The way you put the rod in to lock the back door was just a joke right😂you slide the rod through the hole in the metal plate, then through the two crimps on the back door and then back through the second metal plate. The other end with the hook should be on the outside of the door and stretched up and hooked on the side wall so it is tight and will not come off👍
