Greenhunter Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Looks like a very unfortunate accident with a perfectly legal mole tunnel trap to me. You know what they say about cats and curiosity...almost did kill it this time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inthedark Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 It is indeed a scissor trap for moles, and my local hardware shop will sell anyone as many as they want. Typical media *******, and as I've said before the owner of the cat should should be prosecuted for not looking after it's welfare, allowing it to go off to get hurt. Let me know where it is and I'll ring the RSPCA, might make the papers again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George1990 Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Of course it's not illegal. It even says at the bottom of the report that it can be used. Lucky mole trap owner didn't make the cat disappear after it went digging up his lawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crouch valley Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Maybe if the cat owner kept the bloody thing on its own property it wouldn't have happened no sympathy from me well some the poor chap who has lost a mole trap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
