I have used love traps/cages to capture critters around my house. Mostly ferrel cats, occasionally a possum or raccoon. I ****ing hate raccoon's, they get in to every thing. The cats I really don’t mind. They are rodent control.The only reason to end an animals life that you’re not consuming is if it’s threatening your animals or family. I caught and removed a fox and a cat from my house when I lived in Virginia. They were terrorizing my dog. I drove them both across the Potomac and dropped them off in Maryland. They’re probably voting Democrat.
