Cats hearing is extremely sensitive and they respond extremely well to higher frequency sounds. While we are experiencing much greater responses from all predators, we are finding that the felines are most responsive to the ultrasonic sounds which occur naturallly.
Canines hear to 45,000 kHz while felines hear to 64.000 kHz. All electronic caller on the market today peak at 15-17 kHz. If you are calling where there is no hunting pressure, most any distress sound will work played on any device. You will have more success with hand calls than standard electronics as they reach the ultrasonic range.
Adios,
Gary

Thanks for the tips. I've had a hard time calling them in. I have had one on camera lately but no luck getting one in. One night I had something approach but appeared to come in and lay up near a tree. Couldn't make out exactly what it was.
Been using Lightning Jack, Jackrabbit distress, Adult and Babee cottontail calls.
May have to try grey fox distressed. I callled in a red fox with the grey fox distress call and sniped him at 60 yards.
Good luck OP
