The following emails back and forth are between some guy and different craigslist ads. I find them very entertaining so I'll be posting them here.

Humane "hav a heart" traps for kittens needed
There are some kittens in my neighborhood that need to find good homes. I need a trap 4 the cats to help bring them in. Please email me if you have a trap (and a heart)!
From Me to *********@********.org:
Hello,
Are you still looking for a trap for cats?
Mike
From Deb ******* to Me:
Yes I am can you help me?
From Me to Deb *******:
I most certainly can! I believe this trap is for those who want to "have a heart." I used it to catch a stray cat that kept coming into my garage. It is called the KittyHugger. All you have to do is put some cat food on the trigger, and when the cat comes to eat it, the trap gently contracts into a hugging position and comfortably hugs the cat until you come back to deal with the little guy. Please let me know if this will work.

From Deb ******* to Me:
Mike- I have never heard of a trap like that. I was referring to the "Havahart" traps...you know like the cages for animals?? Do you have any pictures of the trap? I'd like to see how it works before I get it. Thanks.
From Me to Deb *******:
Absolutely. I've attached a picture of it. Sorry if it is a little messy; I haven't cleaned the trap in a while.

YOU'RE SICK!
From Me to Deb *******:
Excuse me?
From Deb ******* to Me:
You killed that poor cat OMG
From Me to Deb *******:
I didn't kill the cat. I told you it was a little messy. The last cat I caught knocked over the bowl of juice I gave him so he wouldn't get thirsty. As you can see, it made quite the mess. I assure you this trap is 100% safe and humane.
From Deb ******* to Me:
IT OBVIOUSLY IS NOT SAFE. IT IS COVERED IN BLOOD
From Me to Deb *******:
You've clearly never seen a juice spill before. You have a twisted imagination if you think that is blood. I guess you don't want the trap.
Before you give up on me, I have one more trap you may be interested in. I actually think it is one of those Have a Heart traps you were talking about, though I've never heard it called that.
Please see the attachments. As you can see from the pictures, the kitty will have plenty of room to be safe and comfortable. It comes with a black tube at the end that is used to pump warm air into the cage to keep him warm while he waits to be released.
I'm sorry I didn't have time to clean the trap. It is still a little messy because the last cat I had in there spilled his bowl of juice and his cat food. It went everywhere!
