CAP Shelter loans cat size LIVE TRAPS for a 'deposit' of $50.00 which will be returned to you when the cage is returned. They request a donation of $5. for each 7 days(One week) period which you keep the cage. For details call 281-497-0591 and ask to speak with Mary Hunt or Barbara.
ALSO you can sometimes purchase cat size LIVE TRAPS at places like Lowe's or Home Depot. Make sure the live trap is large enough for CATS. Some traps are for squirrels or rodents and are too small.
Traps MUST be monitored and checked at least 2 times a day to see if you have trapped the anmal. Have a 'plan of action' ready BEFORE you trap any animal.(Know where & when you are taking them for spay or neuter.) Act promptly since leaving the animal in a cage is very stressful for them.

It is difficult enough for a feral cat to survive without being pregnant or having kittens for which they cannot properly care. They need to be spayed to prevent more suffering and misery. Also, the kittens have a difficult time and because of their small size canNOT regulate their body temperature which means cold or rainy weather OR heat and high humidity adds more danger to their already danger filled life.

'Volunteer' to help CAP Shelter with trapping feral cats.
Help with trapping of feral (wild) cats. After they are trapped, CAP has the cats spayed or neutered and then they are 'released' to their colony where their caretaker will continue to help them. This saves countless kittens being born only to suffer the hardships of a life on the streets and prevents female cats from having the extra burden of caring for kittens.
This volunteer work is usually done once a month.
