Corey;
Yes, cats are definitely addictive but so are coyotes. :-) In all honesty, I would rather see coyotes bouncing around in my traps than cats hissing at me. :-) I have not really started my cat trapping yet since we are only allowed 20 and most of those I will take in Jan & Feb. It won't be hard to fill my quota and I want to get the best quality possible. As to cats being easy to catch-- yes, they are easier if all factors are considered. They let you get away with more mistakes than a coyote will.
As far as the grey fox, my taxidermy quality greys have sold as cheaply as $25 this season and as high as $46. However, one that is a "fur market" grey is running around $15 here. If you just wanted one to hang on the wall (no feet, not preped for taxidermy), just PM me and we can work something out.

You may have already looked at the post but I played around with the picture that was posted and this one might give you a better idea of how I constructed the set. If you don't have rimrock, you can still use the same principle by making a post set next to a pine or cedar with a flag about 8" to a foot behind your set. The flag is strictly eye appeal but I do use another set that I like that has fur wired to a nice sapling about 16" off the ground with lure on it. The cats just love to come up and try and rub that smell into their fur. Snags lots of cats. Just be sure to check your state regs to make sure it would be legal where you are. Anyway, here is the updated picture.
