Try not to appear threatening or the cat may not even want to even look at you, never mind excepting anything from you. Every time you go to feed him try placing the bowl a little closer to you each night. *WARNING* This process could take a while... Meaning a month or two... Try talking to him as well in a "small" friendly voice while he eats... Don't make any sudden movements and try to leave anything that makes noises someplace safe, Cell Phones, pagers, ect... The less there is to scare him the easier it will be to win him over. Possibly he'll jump into your arms and beg for love. I had to go through the same situation and process with one of my cats because of a neighbors over hyper rotty that scared my cat into a cinder-block wall. It only took me a week to regain the trust of my cat, but I've heard of a month to two months before. As long as the cat doesn't have anything that could threaten his life he should be fine till he warms up to you. And good luck. Give kitty lots of love for me...

They were both very friendly but the other 2 are very stubborn. Milk. Warm Milk will do the trick. IF not, then maybe some tuna will do it .I also lured a cat out with kitten noises if that helps at all.

After setting it, cover the bottom with newspaper and place really "evil" smelling cat food at the back. Cover all but the opening with a cloth or towel and, the hard part, check every hour to see if the cat has been trapped. If you can't be close to the location, use cell phones or walkie/talkie devices to monitor the sound when the trap releases. Once trapped, get him to a vet ASAP, where he can be lightly sedated by injection in the cage if necessary, for a vet check. I've TNR'd many cats this way. The double ended trap makes it much easier for the vet to remove the cat. And Lisa is right -you'll only get one chance. They are instant learners!

If Freddy is sneaking out at night, a live trap of some sort should be able to capture him. A 'critter remover' expert likely would have some other hints. We’re with Lisa.

Just don't OPEN the trap with Freddie in it, until you have him in a secure spot and he can't escape outside, or back into a hole. Set up the trap at night, bait it and leave until morning. Should work. But you only get one shot at trapping him. If you trap him, and let him out, you won't get him to go back in more then likely.
