Thealyn Animal Cage Trap 80 X 33 X 27 cm Double Door Animal Cage Trap Metal Trap Cage Humane Live Animal Trap for Rabbits, Stray Cat, Squirrel, Raccoon, Mole, Gopher, Opossum

My cat went missing for nearly a month but was spotted in gardens that back onto a field in the next village. I put this trap out at 11pm in the garden she was frequenting and by 2.30am she was caught. First time I’d used it and immediate results! Putting it together was actually not bad but I’d prefer a clear instruction sheet to the online video. The instruction sheet I got had really small drawings on it that were too small to see what was what, and no words, so I had to watch the video and that was a pain, having to pause, rewind etc etc. but ultimately I had it sorted in about half an hour and it was really effective so I’m not complaining! I’m not sure how long it would’ve taken to get hold of my cat without using this trap - she doesn’t willingly go to people outside of the home so the trap was a desperate attempt to catch her that paid off.

Best cage

The trap doesn’t close, and when it does, the whole door falls apart so the animal can escape anyway. Tried for a week solid and the trap either fails or the door falls down, the trap doors are so tight the hardly shut, certainly not quick enough for a rat to get out anyway. The set up was difficult but having checked the instructions and had my dad look at it, it is set up properly. Very poor design. I’ll be returning.

Worked well for capturing my escaped cat. Took less than 30 minutes once deployed. One of the metal hooks on the top, that is used to secure the ends was missing however so some quality issues. Otherwise decent enough. The video in the product image slideshow shows how it is assembled which is helpful as the leaflet instruction aren't the best.

Caught several foxes and despite their struggles they didn’t escape. Also caught a few squirrels. Initially the fox was just reaching in and taking the food. So I put one end of the trap against a wall and put the food at that end of the cage. The fox then had to cross the trigger to reach the food. Great it folds flat for storage. Easy to put together. Strong and able to contain a large fox. I recommend.

Bought to capture a stray cat. The trigger system is super sensitive which is great, but did mean it was set off without an animal entering on one occasion. Easy to flat pack and store after use and has entry points at either end. We caught on first attempt with no escapee, so would say it works as expected!!

If you’re using this to catch a cat, only leave one end open, and put the food at the other. I had both ends open, with the food in the middle (on the trigger), and the door came down on my cats tail. He was fine, but because the door didn’t close all the way, he was able to get his paws under the door and squirm out. Now he’s too scared of the trap to go near it, so it’s pretty much useless to me now. Also, it’s very overpriced for the build quality. It was a struggle to get it to fit together without obstructing the doors.

I usually don’t write reviews, but made an exception for this one. We have wooden decking and had a family of foxes living under it in our garden, mama, papa and five cubs. Got this as a last resort (we tried building a ladder for the cubs to climb up and over the fence, but they just ignored it). We eventually managed to capture all five cubs, but through trial and error, we learnt the following:- 1. The metal plates can get lodged at an angle, so be careful when setting up. Ensure the plates are sitting perfectly for it to fall down when the central plate is stepped on. Test it a few times to be absolutely sure. 2. Wedge the cage so it cannot be tugged at and dragged by the foxes. 3. It’s best to close one end, leaving only the other end open. Leave food at the closed off end so the fox has to go deep into the cage to step on the central plate. Also leave bait at the entrance to entice them in. 4. I used plywood as a flooring for the base of the cage. The foxes will inevitably release some excrements once trapped. NB - ensure the central plate is not hindered by the flooring. Definitely would recommend as the trap is sturdy, foldable, reusable and most importantly it works - we managed to capture 5 cubs (2 on the first night and 3 the second night). Unfortunately I have to deduct one star as on two occasions the metal end plate did not fall down. On the first occasion it was wedged at an angle upon set up and the second time was after the cage was dragged around by one of the cubs.

Great quality and easy to use
