I want to catch a coyote that goes into a friend's barn & kills/eats the kittens.?

Files under dairy hay | Posted by admin

My friend lives in PA on a dairy farm, and the cats and kittens live in the barn with the cows. The cats are there not only as pets, but also to help keep moles, etc, out of the hay meant for the cows. I do not like the thought of having to kill an animal, but I know in order to stop this from happening, that I will have to. Has anyone ever used a trap?

Yes my inlaws do it quite often. The trap works GREAT. Place some bait inside (Some sort of meat) and wait. You will soon catch that pesky rodent. Good luck!

The coyotes my inlaws have problems with eat their chickens and other small animals. The only way to stop it…. kill the thing. Sorry, but its the truth.

    just sit somewhere in the shadows or on the roof with a a shotgun but you would have to use slugs to take down a coyote

    You might be able to get a humane trap from the humane society. They routinely trap dogs and cats, so they may have something that would work with a coyote. If you could trap it you'd need to move it to another location where it would be too far to return. Otherwise you'd have to kill it.

    Good luck.
