Tomahawk Traps has this excellent piece of equipment to help you and your vet care for an injured feral cat. This "squeeze cage" lines up to a large trap for easy transfer without handling the cat and it allows you to immobilize the cat safely inside the cage with a special squeeze panel. Your vet will be able to inject sedation or even do a partial exam without taking the cat out of the cage.

Handling Gloves Our preferred handling gloves are excellent for handling difficult kittens and feral cats. They are less bulky than the kind of gloves necessary to protect from the crushing bite of a dog so you have much more dexterity for scruffing a small kitten. Available
