Well last night before work I went out to check on the trap. Before I walked up to it I noticed bright eyes shining from the light of my flashlight. As I got closer I saw that it was a cat. How disappointing. All though a big stray cat, still not what i was trying to catch. So i released it. There's a big all most all white skunk living under my barn I'm trying to catch. I reset the trap this evening and baited it with bread and peanut butter sprinkled with cat food. Hopefully that will work. I'm open to suggestions on any other bait options. I'll check it in the morning after work and see if there is anything in the trap.
You're actually probably lucky not to have trapped the skunk!
