## Description

If you're looking for a reliable trap that is great for small animals, you've found it. The 30FCD Fat Cat will accommodate those cats that are simply too big for our 30LTD trap. The Fat Cat allows the animal more room to move around while captive, and operates as a fat cat carrier, cat trap, rabbit trap, possum trap, skunk trap, and more. This trap is the ideal cat trap for stray cats, and is a favorite among feral cat trappers who conduct Trap-Neuter-Return or TNR projects. Gone are the days of the traditional noisy animal cage that pinches and breaks. Tru Catch Traps are quiet, humane, and contain no dangerous springs or hinges, and we back every product with a 5 year limited warranty.

Review: Stray cat life saver and you can’t beat the customer service!! - After Walter a stray cat we had been feeding showed up with some serious injuries we knew that slowly gaining his trust was not an option. After reading up on all my live trap options I decided to go with this one and I’m so happy I did. Despite shipping showing a 1-2 week timeframe I wasn’t able to find anything comparable I could get any faster so I went ahead and bought it and wrote to the seller telling them of our time sensitive situation with Walter. Much to my surprise they not only responded quickly and with empathy but they managed to ship it out before their weekend which resulted in me getting it in days rather than weeks. It arrived on my doorstep and within in hour I had it set up and surprisingly managed to catch him within 30 mins of initial set up. It was easy to use and was also very quiet so he only jumped a little rather than down right panic. Now that I have him caught I can get him the medical attention he needs and deserves. I can’t thank you guys enough for helping me save Walter and for making such an amazing life saving trap. I would 100% recommend this product and seller! Such great customer service is rare these days but so greatly appreciated!! Update: two years later and this trap has helped us save so many feral and stray cats lives. We have used it to catch several injured and sick cats so we could get them to our vet for treatment. It’s also helped us get the feral cats in through our local rescues to be fixed, vaccinated and then released back to their original location so they are at lower risk of spreading disease and adding to the over population problem. We used it to trap 3 semi feral kittens that were running around a Safeway parking lot and they are now loving life as part of our Crew of rescues. It’s been out in the weather but it’s held up impressively well. I do not leave it out in the elements except when trapping and I clean it up between every use and it looks almost new despite being pretty heavily used. 100% recommend this product and company. I included some pictures of just a fraction of the lives we were able to save. Most of these cats were feral cats or abandoned stray cats that would not let us get close and would take off if we so much as stepped out the door. So this really was essential to being so successful and impactful on the homeless cats in our area.
Review: Best cat trap ever! - For TNR, this trap seems to be less sus for stray, lost and feral cat catching. Love that it opens from front and rear making it easier to place bait/food. You may be asking, "This is a large trap! What if I catch an opossum or a fox or raccoon?" Yes. This is a distinct possibility with a larger trap like this and probably more likely. That's the chance we take. Look, I had a VERY angry, scary raccoon caught once in this brand of traps and it held up with zero damage. Trap's integrity wasn't compromised one bit. This is my 4th fat cat trap because I'm certified crazy cat lady and try to trap multiple cats (lord help me). I had a Havahart trap that was destroyed by a lunatic raccoon from the inside out (still hoping that big gal didn't injure herself escaping). Never once has this happened with this brand. BUT stray/feral cats don't seem as suspicious of it as they do the smaller ones in my experience. This is a high end trap and I highly recommend it for cat TNR (even with the accidental raccoon captures). The fat cat trap is a top of the line trap and has been way more effective for trapping and TNR of cats (even with the occasional and accidental psychotic raccoon capture). I usually keep a live cam on the trap and check it every couple of hours (every hour in these Minnesota winters) so whatever gets trapped doesn't hurt itself trying to escape. Nothing can escape this trap, though so ya gotta be vigilant! Here's Randy, a super feral boy who was trapped, neutered and accepted to furball feral cat sanctuary. He was trapped almost instantly in this one and would never go into the smaller one. Randy is thriving now! 5 stars.

## Features

- SAFE & HUMANE: The Tru Catch 30FCD Fat Cat Live Animal Trap is an all-around trap that can handle even the chunkiest cats and is suitable for smaller cats as well. It’s a safe, reliable way to humanely capture or relocate lost pets and small feral animals. There are no sticky springs or hinges and the convenient carry handle features a handguard to further protect you against contact with nervous, trapped animals.
- EASY OPERATION: The 30FCD is easy to set and features a unique, self-locking patented door design that enables full length trap utilization. The trap employs a variable trigger setting mechanism, rear door release, and automatic door release when it is placed in an upside-down position.
- BUILT TO LAST: Our Fat Cat trap features a 3/16" steel wire frame construction with 14 gauge 1/2" x 1" and 1" x 1" wire mesh, and a powder coated frame for long lasting durability. It’s large enough to accommodate even the most rotund cats, made in the USA and comes with a 5 year warranty against animal damage.
- TNR CAT TRAP: The 30FCD is the ideal feral cat trap and a favorite amongst trappers who conduct Trap-Neuter-Return or "TNR" projects. This trap matches up with the T24TE Carrier (Sold Seperately), and can be used as an animal carrier to transport animals to the veterinary clinic for tagging, neutering, and/or spaying. It even has room for a small litter box when the cat needs to be confined for a long period of time

## Questions & Answers

**Q: For those who also tried the 30ltd, do you prefer the 30fcd? if so, why?**
A: I started with the 30fcd because I have used other brands of traps that were narrower and had trouble catching some of the larger cats in my area.  Figured I might as well start with the wider traps.  The traps work very well and vets office finds them easier to work with than the snap shut style traps.  I try to use the old style if I think there is a raccoon in the area because they tear up the traps so much.  The traps aren't real long to get the width, so it fits in the back of my car better.  I have been very pleased with the quality of the traps and recommend them to anyone that is trying to catch feral cats. I usually line part of the bottom of the trap with cardboard and use a cardboard box to cover the trap and make it look more like a cave for hiding in.

**Q: Anyone have problems with trigger needing too much pressure to release? I’ve tried all positions with no success?**
A: Yep on one of ours it just won't trigger regardless of Pam, position, etc and I can't get the company to reply

**Q: Will this work for catching a large opossum?**
A: Yes.  If it works. I have 2 of these.  They are certainly strong enough.  One of these works great, the other is somehow set up wrong.l and I can't get it to reliably trip.  Warranties mean nothing if you don't answer calls or emails. But it is the strongest trap.

**Q: I read where this trap won't work on kittens or a pregnant mom.  Is there another model that has a front and rear door?**
A: This trap has both a front and rear door. It is able to trap any size of cats.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely BEST Cat Trap Ever Made!
*by A***Y on May 31, 2022*

This trap was easy to set. I did practice setting the door over and over again to make sure it would close when I was ready to catch feral cat. Watched videos from people that actually know how to use this Fat Cat cage and the proper way to prepare it inside and outside; ie, lining with newspaper, where to put food, covering with blanket a certain way, checking cage FREQUENTLY as to not leave animal in their longer than necessary!! This is a very humane cage, excellent construction, easy to use. It does not slam shut like the ones you get at any of the Box Stores. Yes, those are much less expensive, BUT, this is quieter when door comes down...well worth the money! BUY IT! Was going to get the smaller of the 2 choices from this company, but the cat I was rescuing was a big cat. The smaller one would be better for kittens. I cannot say enough good things about this cat trap! Best news is he got caught with no problem, got him fixed and now he has a good home!
