1. The tranferred dose wouldn't be enough to seriously harm the cat.

At least, it shouldn't be. Stranger things probably have happened, though. Hawks and other predators are poisoned in this way, but its usually from consuming a fairly significant amount of poisoned prey over a period of time, such as when ranchers do mass poisonings of gophers.

What about using those sticky traps. Messy, kind of nasty, but effective. And, they are non-toxic. The glue is soluble in oil, so if a cat gets into one by accident, you can remove the glue with cooking oil, and then use Dawn to was the oil out of the fur.
