If you have an intact tom chances are that he came around because of the
unspayed female you have outside. She's now probably pregnant and you
can expect to have more kittens soon if you don't catch her and get her
spayed.

Feed her at the same time in the same place every *night* and put the
trap nearby with the door tied open. Once she's used to it start moving
the food closer and then into the trap inch by inch. When she's eating
inside it untie the door and you'll have her. Make sure to put a folded
newspaper on the floor of the trap so that it covers the trip plate.
This way she won't see it and step over it.

Also, whether this cat is owned or not, he should be neutered right
away, especially if you plan on integrating him in with your resident
cats. If you don't you're asking for trouble as he may become aggressive
once he's feeling better. And just on principle I would never return a
cat to its owner still intact, or at all for that matter, when he's an
adult that was roaming and had on a too tight flea collar.

"Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one
elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and
splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then
providence moves too. A whole stream of events issues from the decision,
raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and
material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his
way."

- W.H. Murray
