What's the best way to trap a sick, feral cat that won't eat bait?

Question

hello, there's this really sick cat ib my neighbourhood which i want to trap to send it for treatment since it looks like its in a lot of pain. unfortunately, even when i set up a makeshift trap (basic cat carrier with wet tuna as bait) it does not even go into the trap even when it is every hungry. it has a swollen and infected right eye (sealed shut). it is also underfed and dirty. i am assuming it also lost its sense of smell. its very hard for me to catch it. what can i do?

You will need to get a real cat trap if at all possible. I found these resources in Kuala Lumpur. They will either come out and trap the cat for you or they will loan you a trap. ( https://bestfriends.org/stories-blog-videos/latest-news/helping-community-cats-malaysia ) Put this in your search box in Facebook: Trap - Neuter - Release - Manage ( TNRM ) Malaysia. Their phone contacts: 012-6564232 or 012-9696573. That is going to be your only way to catch the cat. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
