What happens next?

Requesting a cat trap:

Cat traps requests may experience high demand, particularly during certain times of the year. If a trap is not immediately available, we will place you on a waiting list. Once a trap becomes available, an Authorised Officer will deliver it to your property.

Cat trap retrieval and cat collection:

Once ready for retrieval, an Authorised Officer will visit to collect both the trap and the cat.
