I downloaded some PDF forms and ideas from Alley Cat Allies, check this link and look at the trapping guidelines and trapping kit:

Strangely, I also found a Youtube vid very helpful when I was learning to use a trap:

Hope this helps.

Might be an idea to put a laminated A5 on the trap with cable ties stressing than they need returning ASAP as they are needed for other cats and are in short supply.

I believe I am not interested to know whether Vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn't. To know that the results are profitable to the race would not remove my hostility to it.  Mark Twain

Does anyone have any standard blurb that is given out to the public when they borrow a trap from a rescue? We seem to be giving out traps left right and centre at the moment and i would like to issue a standard A4 leaflet or something for general advice and do and dont's..

Any ideas or ready made blurb appreciated.
