hi Betty,I believe the rat gets trapped within the box,so a cat wouldnt be able to get to it,but Ill certainly be checking this out when they come. If it was down to me we wouldnt have poison at all,but Im duty bound to research all avenues

Rach, please let us know what the pest control man says about this. When I spoke to someone at our pest control dept. they told me that the poison would be put where other creatures couldn't get it but it didn't seem to have occurred to them about the danger of cats eating the dead or dying rats.
