TailSafe Trap — Humane TNR, controlled with care.
Real-time monitoring, remote door control, and tail-safe protection with a soft-brush frame.
This is a demo without a physical camera. “Simulate Motion” will show a motion-detected alert.
TailSafe Trap
A humane, smart, and field-ready trap designed for TNR volunteers.
Soft Brush Safety Frame
The door is smaller than the frame, leaving a gap filled with soft silicone/TPE bristles to protect tails and paws.
Quiet, Controlled Closing
Calm closing with low noise reduces panic and improves capture success.
Smart Monitoring & Control
Internal camera connects to the ForPaws web app for real-time view, motion alerts, and one-tap remote door control.
Deep-Zone Gravity Sensor
Floor pressure sensor triggers only when the cat is far enough inside—preventing false triggers.
Pull-Out Feeding Tray
Refill food safely from outside without opening the door.
Volunteer-Friendly
Rounded forms, easy-clean surfaces, and a lightweight shell help both cats and people stay calm.
Remote Door Control
Confirm the target is a cat, then safely close the door.
Safety tip: Always verify the animal type and position before closing.

Our Story
Technology can be kind.
ForPaws is a design-led initiative improving the experience of Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) for both cats and volunteers. Traditional metal traps can be loud, stressful, and risky—tails or paws may be injured during fast door closure, and frightened cats may panic or escape.
We listened to volunteers and built a better path: quiet motion, remote confirmation, and injury-preventive design. The TailSafe Trap embodies our belief that efficiency and compassion can work together—reducing fear without reducing results.
