Hide, I've never snared a cat, only yotes and other unwanted critters....but, if a cat is any more dangerous than a pizzed-off possum to get outta a snare, I want no part of them.
I was trying to be soft-hearted, and turn the possum loose, but ended up, having to put a Chuck Norris move on him....but, not before he chewed up a good pair of leather gloves with my fingers inside.
