You know you can keep a skunk from smelling if you hold its nose.

You say you had battered and missing barn cats and you caught a smelly fellow in your trap??? I think I know who it is:

"Permit me to introduce myself. I am Pepe Le Pew, your lover."
"When you are a skunk, you learn 'ow to 'old your breath for a long time."

Mixed with Tabasco Sauce and Vodka. Won't help the smell, but drink enough and you won't notice.

I've seen variations of this formula before. I suppose you don't have to do the steps that are specific to dogs, unless you're really hairy.

I think I'd go with Bill's remedy first.

ah, your using too large a trap, i found that if the skunk is not able to lift its tail it cant sprits!, hope you find the same!,

That solution worked well on my dog.

Alrighty then...tried Bill's remedy first and thought the stench had pretty much wore off...when the wife got home she made it very clear it had not....so I proceeded to woof-woof and howl extensively to gain the wife's consent to perform Steve's recommendation on me in the tub...NOT...so a sponging down with vinegar and long shower must of had some effect...the wife let me sleep in bed!!!!

...now I need to go check the trap again...
