Tips on how to catch a stray cat

Tips

 * Some rescues and animal welfare organizations will lend you a live trap for free.
 * Cats can be picky about people. If the cat doesn't seem to warm up to you, ask a friend to try instead.
 * Domesticating feral cats can be tough. If the cat is a part of a feral cat colony, the ASPCA recommends the Trap-Neuter-Return method. Capture it, take it to the vet, and then return it to the colony to live out the rest of its life.
 * Wear thick clothing when attempting to catch a stray, in case the cat tries to claw you.
 * Do not take the cat to a pet store or high-kill shelter. Research any organization before turning the cat over to them.
 * Determine if the cat is a stray or feral. You may need help from a cat rescue group to do this. One thing to look for is that feral cats are almost never vocal.
 * Even if you don't have a shelter nearby, check the Internet for shelters in nearby counties. They may be able to help you.
