safegaurd has some pretty big ones, but the can get pricey. the havahart 1081 is plenty big enough and they are pretty reasonably priced. you can't build them for much cheaper then you can buy them.
good luck!

PM me, or Yancy. Yancy makes the best cages for cats, they are built and designed with cats in mind. I use his and they are by far the best. The havahart will and does work, but it is to low at the height for good cat numbers. I have used the havaharts before yancys cages, same exact are, same bait just different size cages and my results are twice what they were the year before. His are the best if bobcats are in your kline of sight.

I know of some people that use these cages and put up alot more cats than the best guys with steel!!
 
can someone PM me on the price of Yancy's cages? I am looking to pick up a cage this year. I already have a havahart, but I've heard great things about Yancy's
 
Alot are home made. One of the keys is the bait. I recally that yancy used a piece of rabbit fur with eyes strung to the back of the trap so a little wind would make it move. He also covers his traps pretty well with brush. His traps have a door that slides straight up and down. I do feel a larger trap with a door that is more out of the way will help. A small cage inside your trap with live sparrow will help alot also just keep them fed and watered. Id also cover the floor pretty well. Also wasatch outdoors sells a electronic squeaker that you could could put under or around it, i want to say yancy used a squeaker also. Yancy and other trap builders hang out at trapperman
