Yes, I've inadvertantly trapped cats with fish bait.  I have to use large
traps to get the big toms and if you use meat or fish all bets are off what
might wind up inside.  I use a few marshmellows placed in a pierced plastic
sandwhich bag staked at the back of the trap.  Around here skunks can be
attracted to marshmellows, apparrently when there is drought, so I have
occassionally been forced to tie my traps into a tree because it is tiresome
having to free my friendly skunks from the traps.  They are about the
calmest mammals on earth, however, and when you open the trap for them they
may just yawn and go on with their nap waiting till nightfall to leave.
