Possums are much better for the environment than outdoor cats.

yeah unless they're like getting into your house somehow, you really should just let them do their thing

It also may be illegal to trap them without a permit depending on your location.

Sure it's a cat? Pretty sure it'd a possum. Why would a possum trap catch anything but a possum?

Check the litter box, they may have done a house swap…

Could be worse. I set a trap like that for my cat and caught a skunk.

Set a trap for my indoor cat that got out. Caught a possum, multiple neighborhood cats, my other cat a bunch. Took a month to trap the right cat.

Why try to trap a possum? They eat bugs and are rather chill. We love having a few around.
