There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
This "kit" includes the trap itself folded down very compactly, a cover, and a divider/separator. All were REALLY handy in our endeavor to take care of our cats.
Set up is easy, just be careful not to put undue force on anything, align the cage and get things connected, and you're ready to go. The directions were pretty easy to follow...except use of the divider/separator wasn't really well described. I describe its use below.
Be sure that when you assemble this thing, and whenever you open and then close the back door, that you thread the U shaped metal rod through the little metal hoops attached to the back door. This provides reinforcement, so you don't have anything break out of your trap.
We left our traps outside for the cats to get accustomed to them, using twine to hold the doors up so they don't snap shut. First they were just curious, then the cats eventually would crawl into the traps to eat food, and that made catching them much easier. Instead of letting the doors snap shut, I let them get into the trap, then cut the twine and gently lowered the door. Panic of course ensued temporarily, and the poor cat would run in circles and freak out. This is when you MUST place a cover on the cage so the feral cat will calm down. With the cage covered, they will lay down and relax. And possibly meow a lot.
The included cover is a burlap piece, plenty strong and covers very well, but allows good airflow. It does distinctly smell like burlap, not my most favorite odor but not a chemical smell or really that horrendous in my opinion. Some people are, however, very sensitive to this based on other reviews. I best describe the odor as an over ripe melon. If it bothers you, leave it out in the rain and sun for a couple of days to a week and it will dissipate. Don't bother trying to wash it out with a washing machine, your best bet is just plain old sunshine.
So, finally, the divider/separator - it turns out to be a really useful part of this kit. I had a rough time understanding its use initially from the instructions. We also used this with my parents old trap that didn't have a back door, just the trap side opening. That made it even better since i could get the cat to the rear of the trap and keep it there while tending to food and water. The separator is fed through the cage horizontally (not vertically) to make a wall of sorts between you and the cat. Keep it low - practice and test its use before a cat is in there. Find out where in the wire mesh it works best. It may bind in some places. Keeping it low avoids paws and cat heads trying to creep under the thing :) You can gently slide it in with a cat in there, and they'll probably back away. Then, you can remove it and reinsert it a little further back until you have room to open and get the food/water out and back in. We used the separator both with this cage, and my parents, and it was a tremendous help. Without it, we had a couple of incidents where a "fresh from the vet" cat tried to make their way out of the cage as we opened it to put food/water in. Not good having a cat who just got sewn up running off into the wild. While using the divider, the cat generally would lay there while we changed out the food and water and cleaned the cage. When we were done, we'd latch the trap shut again and remove the separator, and the cat would have their food/water.
Overall this is a great kit, and if you're going to own one trap like this, make it this one. The price was also very nice from Amazon.
Now that the instructions are out of the way, here's my actual review: this trap works very well. It is sturdy, and it is sensitive enough to trap a small cat. When I caught the cat, I took it to the vet to be neutered. I asked the technician if he knew how to work the cage door and he said yes, because it was the same type of cage they kept on-hand for emergencies. It's nice to know that this trap is used by professionals.
The rescue kit includes a burlap cover. DO NOT USE IT! Seriously, get the cover out of your home as soon as you take it out of the box. It has the most hideous chemical smell I've ever encountered. I took a chance and washed both of the covers, but even after 4 long, hot-water washings, the smell did not diminish. And (I swear this is true) my washing machine now smells like the God-awful things. The stench from the covers filled my entire first floor and gave everyone a sore throat and burning eyes. I am going to write a letter to the Havahart company telling them about this issue.
In short, if you have a critter problem, this trap will work perfectly, but DON'T USE THE COVER!
