My Siberian cat could escape a harness. He was pure liquid. It was amazing. So much for harnessing and walking a cat to protect them.

Cats can also de-materialize. You know... you put them in a room and close the door. Come back a little later and they are nowhere to be found. You look again and they are not in there. Come back AGAIN and there they are sitting in plain sight wondering what you are looking at.

😂عفت😢😊

Maybe the cat was injured escaping for another trap somewhere else and he had to dislocate his hind leg to get out like Mel Gibson dislocating his shoulder to get out of a straight jacket in Lethal Weapon 2 . Maybe they should call the cat Mel or Riggs hehe.

Eating in the trap while it’s propped open and then escaping without much delay when trapped might’ve made it feel pretty confident What meal is without risk for a predator?

Yes. It is amazing what they can do. And if you had their jumping ability, from the ground, you would be able to easily jump up to a second or third floor porch or deck!

Clearly not the cats first rodeo with the traps.

If it was only rats they ate we'd all be happy. But everything to them looks like a rat.

it's the fault of humans for bringing them there

Это нормальный естественный отбор. Выживают сильнейшие, слабые вымирают. Так устроено все в природе. Власть кошкам!

That cat is still doing well, quite the survivor! BB

I have to wonder why cats are not protected by law as dogs are. Are they considered "lesser" in some way?

Ooops Cat Crack!

@@titicatfollies6615 cats are called throw a way animals. They are loving, silly, intelligent and extremely loyal! I just lost my best friend, Gato Diablo a few months ago, after the loss of my precious twin, he was one of a few friends who didn't leave, whilst I lost my mind. "Big" was 17 yrs old and also got me through the death of my parents in 2020. He ordered my life, vocally lol! And fell on me when I cried, mostly to shut me up but... he also helped me rescue 35 cats and kittens in 12 yrs. I found him suckling the last two baby's, Mojo and Dozey, my last two angels. Xo

Sorry, it's called Cat Crack!

@@lisawest9731 No one I know calls cats "throwaway animals"! That's ridiculous. Cats don't roam around chasing and threatening people, as dogs sometimes do. That may be why dogs have to be licensed and kept in check.

Funny how the most secretive ones we hardly ever see instantly eyeball the camera followed by a look of: "Oh shit I've just been spotted !" on their faces 🤣

Stay tune for more feral cat videos! BB

Thanks for the feedback. BB

Thanks Doc! Stay tuned one thing is for sure this cat is always doing something interesting. BB

I think it is awesome that he healed up naturally from the injuries he got from fighting with the raccoon. That shows he is a naturally healthy cat.

Escape class 101: opportunity & desperation

This cat really craves catnip - still going strong. BB

It was amazing how he powered through that small gap without injury. BB

@@MyBackyardBirding It amazes me how domestic cats hardly get injured when they fight with each other. There's those typical cuts and scratches, but moderate to serious injuries aren't common.

@@MyBackyardBirding there was blood inside on the cardboard bottoms.

These clips were from a trail camera and unfortunately there is a 10 second gap between each of the one-minute videos spliced together.

That is a coyote!

Looks like the typical, well used, Havahart to me.

looks like a harbor freight trap. easy to escape from.

This cat has escaped twice even after I reinforced the trap. He now lives free. There is a trick the most hardcore cats know. It seems impossible but they get out.

The bobcat would of course dominate any of those other animals.

Sardines are very difficult for them to pass up as well!

I'll have an update soon! BB

I think the catnip might be a factor in not panicking and solving the problem. This cat has never been caught yet. BB

I have caught and TNR'd and or found homes for 8 cats with this trap over the years, but this one old- timer knew the trick probably from being caught before and had the guts to contort himself. It is designed as a foldable trap and true it's cheap, but strong, the trick to fixing it is to just put big zip ties thru the bottom corners.

Here are the first two chapters on this cat: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iqp1hZuQ0t20lGw.html and kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p8qXhdCem5y5npc.html BB

Because humans are sick in their minds. That male cat has a wonderful life and this dude is trying to catch him so he can cut off his balls and make him a girl. He might as well kill it because there is no point in living for the cat if he cant mate or defend his territory.. this guy together with other idiots are looking through their human eyes and think they can decide how a cat should live and what that cat should eat, gtfoh man

That's actually a pretty funny comment! BB

He's still doing fine today! Tough cat. BB

I made some mods to the door after seeing how he escaped, but clearly some cats are smarter, or learn from experience, more than others as I've caught and TNR's or adopted six in this same trap and most just accept their fate. This though is a truly wild creature and I've left him be to live out his life on his own terms. See him once in awhile. BB

Wrong. Every animal has it's place in nature. All domestic cats are directly related to the wild cats, most of which came from the northern part of Africa. There are no animals on the planet that are more endangered than felines - especially the larger ones - tigers, snow leopards, clouded leopards, etc. And because our ancestors up here in the Northeastern part of the US were so fearful of them, the mountain lions were hunted to extinction in a huge portion of the country. Felines are apex predators and highly vital to maintaining the balance of nature.

@@tonyprice2256 feral cats are like an invasive species they have no place in nature.

@@chrisspanks7750 Well i disagree with that. I believe that all creatures have a place in nature. It is not the fault of any creature on the planet that it simply exists. It was not your fault that you were born, nor was it my fault that i was born. Somebody else made the decisions that resulted in our existence. Feral animals exist because of irresponsible people. People that abandon them without ever having them spayed or neutered. Then populations of the flourish because they do what animals do. The people are the root of the problem - irresponsible people. In fact, irresponsible and greedy people are the root of all the major problems on the planet. What causes more damage to the planet, a few stray cats, or people? Who are the ones cutting down all the trees in the forests? Who are the ones dumping toxic chemicals into rivers, lakes and oceans? Who are the ones dumping tons of plastic into the oceans? Who are the ones that start all the wars? Who are the ones that have hunted many animals into extinction? Who is it that has the greatest impacts on this planet? To solve any problem, you must go to the root of the problem. Change the people and you can solve the problem. If you can not change the people, the problem will never be solved, and you will accomplish nothing other than complain about it until you grow too old and tired to complain any longer.

​@@tonyprice2256 Maybe you also believes that cockroaches and mosquitoes have a place in your home; or that tigers/lions that are set free by irresponsible owners have a place in your residential area.

​@@tonyprice2256 We must indeed change people, so that there is no more abandoned pets, among other things. We also have to deal with the feral cat issue, just like we deal with pollution. If you wish for the best of feral cats, adopt them. Or keeping them in an enclosed area, like how you would deal with abandoned tigers in a residential area. Have some sympathy for the local wildlife.
