    Do you think he might be trapped by a Hav-A-Hart trap? Maybe you
    could set it up in the boiler room when he is being feed. But
    if those JERKS are around, you'd have to check it frequently or
    have someone else check it for you while you are at work. Maybe
    you could set it in the evening and you'd be around to check it 
    off and on during the night. 
                    
    I have a feeling that if he is purring and rubbing on your leg,
    that eventually he'll come inside on his own.
    
    BTW - are you in Massachusetts?

    I thought about the trap as an option, but as you mentioned, he
    just might come in on his own after awhile - my family said that
    to me as well; to be patient with him.  But I can't keep him; just
    give him temporary shelter, food, and love until I can find a home
    for him.
    
    I live in Ashland, MA, just over the Framingham town line.

    (What do you mean, the "black kitty goes crazy when it sees the white
    one" -- he likes the white one or he dislikes it? )  
    
    I too think the black one would come inside and the two cats would
    adjust to each other in time, as this all sounds like very standard
    behavior, but I do understand the room problem, I'm at CatMax myself.      
    
    Perhaps we could murder the "jerks" and bury their bodies in the
    woods...no, strike that...forget I said it.
