Had the same problem with coons,caught over 100 of them in the last 2 years.
As I was walking out of the farm store with my new live trap,I met a hunter/trapper friend who asked what I was trapping and what I was going to use for bait? I said the booklet with the trap said to use dog or cat food. The trapper said no way,with that bait all you will catch is your cats. He said to bait it with small marsh mellows,coons love sweet things and cats dont. It worked very well,have only had one or two cats in the trap and only because they were curious. I never caught the same cat twice,they learn after the first time. The coons have died by the dozens for a couple of sugar coated M mellows.
