TJ got out 2x in the past 2 days!!

My cat TJ (always been the wilder one) is an indoor cat. Funny thing is, I made new tags for him at PetSmart with our new address & number last week but did not put them on yet, stupid me. I went to walk Casey last night and he slipped out the door. I see him out of the corner of my eye, slinking around. He is dark gray and it was pitch black out. My DH and I finally caught him in a neighbors yard. We must have looked like lunatics, running around strangers yards with a flashlight! I was so upset, he is not used to being outside, with feral cats, possums and cars!! Get him back inside and he does it AGAIN this morning. My DH and I were leaving the house and I swore I heard his bells outside. And sure enough after I searched the house top to bottom, he was outside. My DH saw him as he was driving up the street, fighting with a neighborhood cat. Once again I had to chase him down! We think maybe he is trying to get attention since we have the 'new baby' lol Casey in the house!

OH NO!!!! Precious is an indoor cat too, but he desperately trys to get out to see the feral cats that live in our backyard. I am so scared that one day he will.. Those outdoor cats are MEAN!!!
Is your cat neutered?? That could be a reason why he is trying to escape.
