- TRAP ISOLATOR
ACES MUST HAVE. The isolator slides horizontally across the trap effectively separating the cat, so you can safely isolate the cat in the trap and open the trap to clean and put in food and water. (Bungee cords are great for holding trap doors open while doing this.) **Only use the isolator horizontally ACROSS the trap, never vertically! When inserted vertically as shown in the picture, big, strong, freaked-out ferals will slam against it hard enough to pop it out.
