Legend! This video was the perfect help. Enjoy that coffee 😊

[@tamaramcrae4037]

Omg thank you so much for this video! The little piece of paper the box gave me I didn’t understand anything. You made it so simple and straightforward thank you seriously

[@breakaway2x]

Thank you Tamara for the comment! I'm glad it helped! Yes I was confused too when I tried to learn how to set it up so I had to make my own video to show it simple and easy.

[@osamakhalid1810]

[@emgon2096]

Excellent demonstration of the mechanics. Thank you.

[@breakaway2x]

thank you for your kind words

[@photoman2004]

important to understand animals (even "dumb" rabbits) learn about the trigger paddle after their friends get trapped.. so for better results, put a towel inside to cover it up

[@breakaway2x]

thanks for sharing good tip Timo!

[@user-er6rv4gy1h]

Good tip, thanks

[@bethanyrobinson6347]

Thank you for this!! Trying to catch a lil stray kitty in my shed and couldn’t figure out how to set this damn thing up lmaooo

[@breakaway2x]

lol I know the feeling! I hope you rescue that kitty! ♥

[@marrlena947]

Thank you thank you thank you!!! I got NO instructions with my cage and was completely frustrated. Great video, easy to follow. I am sooo grateful❤

[@breakaway2x]

thank you !

[@Dodgerzden]

This was a lifesaver. The instructions made absolutely no sense and I’m usually pretty good at figuring these things out. Thanks.

[@breakaway2x]

Thank you Michael! Yes, when I bought it, I had the same issue....I'm usually pretty good with instructions but had no idea how to set it up. So once I figured it out, I thought I'd just make a video to clearly show how to set it up. Best of luck Michael!

[@eliara-thevoice8430]

Ditto. The instructions for my trap were terrible. I figured it out on my own....for the most part. This video filled the gaps. Many thanks.

[@fallmax]

You are a lifesaver thank you

[@breakaway2x]

Thank you Max!

[@misskitty8510]

Thank you!!!!! After battling the cage for an hour I was hoping I could find some help on KZbin. I never would have figured it out!!! I live in a trailer park with many feral and kittens! My cute cats passed away over six months ago. So miss Elmer fudd is going hunting for kitties! ❤🐾💕😅

[@breakaway2x]

awww I hope you will find new lovely furbabies! God bless

[@abdalla1955]

This is the most important video on the internet , the damn piece of paper that was suppose to be the assemble instruction is totally useless , thank you for the video.

[@breakaway2x]

Thank you! I agree....that's why I had to make it

[@oldguyriders]

Great instructional video. Thank you for making this, it certainly helps a lot!

[@j.michaelbarrows5266]

Thank you for sharing these instructions. Amazon does a horrible job and allows sellers to not send written instructions for the animal traps

[@lizhood6132]

Thank you so much for this. As you predicted, the trap turned up with no instructions, but thanks to you I figured it out. Now to get 5 kittems....

[@breakaway2x]

awesome!! Thanks Liz

[@ahmad6453]

Great video mate, I just the cage and didn't have a clue. Figured it out first go after watching your video. Thanks again 👍

[@breakaway2x]

Glad it helped!!

[@pony7752]

❤ thank you so much, the instructions were so clear and good.

[@breakaway2x]

thank you Pony!

[@kittykat7528]

Omg you are my hero I’ve been trying to work it out for hours with no instructions 😂

[@breakaway2x]

aw thank you kitty!

[@recycledfelines]

We are a kitten rescue, never seen the older. Have a heart traps, this helps so much. Thank you thank you thank you

[@breakaway2x]

Glad it helped! I hope you'll continue to save many more kittens' lives! Thank you!

[@SukiiFu]

Thank you so much, I have received an instruction paper but still couldn't figure it out without looking at this video first! Wish me luck into catching the stray cat🍀

[@breakaway2x]

You're welcome and best of luck to you!

[@agonzalez1507]

Perfect!!

[@michaelmoravec8206]

thanks buddy:) I have a skunk & groundhog living under my porch.. always fighting ,its a stinky situation! Just got my 32inch cage~trap..

[@breakaway2x]

hope it helps and good luck getting him relocated!

[@eliara-thevoice8430]

Excellent video. The instructions with my Pet Republic trap (which looks just like this one) were pretty crappy. These visuals helped me tremendously. I am preparing trapping and spaying/neutering fetal cats in my community. Sadly, my trigger/step plate won't stay up and my trap keeps closing on its own. Looks like I may need to make some modifications. It's not working.

[@breakaway2x]

Glad it helped! Thank you Elia for the comment!

[@OneBigToe]

Thanks for this ☺️

[@breakaway2x]

wow I'm glad it helped! I didn't expect more than 50 views when I made this video.

[@Ajitpalbangar5350]

Thx for video 😂before this video I was struggling😂😂😂

[@breakaway2x]

I'm glad it helped!

[@kimkeough8742]

Thanks so much for the easy instruction. It was a lot easier to set up than I thought.

[@breakaway2x]

Thank you Kim!

[@vinethai7390]

Thanks you to describe it perfectly

[@breakaway2x]

thank you!

[@osamakhalid1810]

Thank u mate

[@nava8529]

Thank you for teaching us how to set this up

[@breakaway2x]

my pleasure friend!

[@duprie37]

Thanks! Couldn't make head nor tail of the enclosed instructions.

[@breakaway2x]

Thank you Daniel for the comment!

[@shumboom]

At least you got some instructions 😂

[@monicastockli4364]

Thank you!

[@mothball5425]

How do you open the door to release an animal without being bitten?

[@breakaway2x]

The best way is to open the back door. Just remove the steel pole at the back from the hinges and the back door will be able to open. Always use gloves too when working with catching strays/animals. I use cat gloves which are bite proof material.

[@user-er6rv4gy1h]

Thank you soooo much for the close ups and simple instructions. (older lady not holding tongue in right place)

[@breakaway2x]

aw thank you for your comment! I'm glad it helped you!

[@qimmu11]

thank you for your great videos. I bought you 5 cups of coffee w/ the link you gave us in your pinned comment.

[@breakaway2x]

aw thank you for your kindness! It's been lonely so it was nice to have coffee with u! God bless

[@sheila7909]

Thanks so much

[@breakaway2x]

glad it helps!

[@robertmurray9948]

Cheers got no instructions with trap good help clip

[@breakaway2x]

I'm glad it helped!

[@kutzunyo]

It would be helpful if you show us how to secure the back there is two tiny holes but just one is used or? Thanks in advance.

[@oblivion85]

Dude you made setting this is up easier than the Chinese instructions I got.

[@breakaway2x]

thanks!

[@slaanax9119]

Thanks for the video! Got one from JT Eaton and had no directions and the video they have was useless.

[@user-kw6xh4lw9r]

My L plate on my cage in so sensitive it does not need the plate to be touched, it will just go. that is worrying. It is a Ant March one.

[@breakaway2x]

check to see the metal hook that is holding the step plate up. You might be able to adjust the metal hook so the L plate is not so sensitive.

[@xX_Dr_Suave_Xx]

Thank you so much for explanation! You deserve my like for this video!

[@breakaway2x]

aw thank you so much brother!

[@princessmaryam6148]

Thank you very much! My amazon instructions were so hard to understand

[@breakaway2x]

Thank you Mary!

[@yolarhodes8467]

Thank you so much for this video. It helped me tremendously because the instructions was useless. I only have one question how do I safely release the animal once in the cage

[@breakaway2x]

the best way is to open the rear door (release the locking pin from the hinges) then step away far back.

[@breakaway2x]

These small animal trap cages are a great way to catch feral cats, raccoons, squirrels, groundhogs, other small animals. This is a video to show you how to set up the cage. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

[@animalpower6061]

Pls make more Tennis videos

[@jessicarodgers873]

I need to trap some wild kittens, they are probably 12 to 16 weeks old, what size cage do I need?

[@breakaway2x]

Thanks for asking! For kittens that small you won't need a large cage obviously so any small trap cages will work just fine. Something like 16x6x6.25 inches or so. Here's an example on amazon: amzn.to/2VW3qKZ

[@TheDreamscapeEchoes]

How do you release the animal 🤔

[@breakaway2x]

You'll need to wear those animal gloves, then squeeze the latch in the front door inwards to raise the front cage door. The animal will be glad to run out. Another good idea is to cover the cage with a blanket to reduce stress and when the opening door opens, it'll be clear for the animal to see the way out.

[@breakaway2x]

aloha! I wish to visit Hawaii !

[@munmundas6989]

How many price

[@breakaway2x]

It is around $35-$50 usd depending on the size you want.

[@lydiaahubbell8545]

how to release?

[@breakaway2x]

you can slide the pin out from the back and the back door opens.

[@stevez340]

The way you put the rod in to lock the back door was just a joke right😂you slide the rod through the hole in the metal plate, then through the two crimps on the back door and then back through the second metal plate. The other end with the hook should be on the outside of the door and stretched up and hooked on the side wall so it is tight and will not come off👍

[@breakaway2x]

you just confused me lol

[@stevez340]

@@breakaway2x I guess we’re even then😂

[@Chimosa843]

You never showed the cat getting in

[@cawiltu]

UPS! That’s not the design I have

[@ihytvm]

Umm, no thanks. Imagine having to stick your hand on that porous trapdoor to release an angry rabbit feral cat, growling and hissing inside.

[@breakaway2x]

They have something called, "protective gloves". ^^. You should never use your bare hands.

[@ihytvm]

@@breakaway2x Yes, I know, but that would set me back at least 20 bucks or more, and such gloves would decrease my dexterity which I need in dealing with the door and latch...What I'm saying is that available in the market is a trap with a solid door which provides more protection. Also, what if you're dealing with a hissing mad skunk? Would "protective" gloves help you against such an animal?

[@newatlantisrepublic6844]

@@ihytvm Well then, your only other option is to politely yet firmly ask the critter to leave Most of the time they will as long as you're nice about it

[@Chimosa843]

NO IT DID NOT HELP

[@stevemondin4960]

The one I bought is a Twocorn. Ridiculous chines interpretation of English instructions. Also, It appears that the rear door is to be permanently secured. This is what should be used to easily and safely release the animal. Any advise on this? Im not going to get near the mad animal to release the same way that it got in. I thinkl I actualy hit the dislike button but yur instructions were clear although my cage is different

[@breakaway2x]

trap cages should always have a back door access/ release open. If it really doesn't and it's welded solid, then the only way is to put on protective gloves (the long ones that go up your arms) and then open the cage from the front.

[@deathdevils8966]

Thank you!

[@breakaway2x]

all the best!
