Re: cats
If, you go that route you want a female cat they are the hunters.
As far as traps, it is interesting as to how many different traps have been invented over the years. The common snap traps work fine, the secret is the bait-try peanut butter. Poison, the one commonly used causes the rodent to bleed internally. Since they do not vomit they die a slow death and will seek water. If, they die in the walls or attic it will stink. Years ago, I was sure it was a rat. I kept needing to re-bait the trap and having it sprung but missed. In the end it was a field mouse. Finally got hm with the arm of the trap. Point a rat trap does not only get, kill rats.
