I've caught a ground hog three times, but all three times it pushed it's way out under the door. Disappointed with the Harbor Freight animal trap

If you have o get any bigger cats. You'll have to reinforce those doors. The bottom of the trap door will give if they burrow into one of the corners. At the rear, the hook on mine was bent out of shape and popped off by another cat. So what I did instead is I stuck the grounding L bard that came with the trap and push it across the back release door. For the front, I hit it with zip ties before I carry the trap with a cat in it.
