16. I'm assuming he's spitting/hissing/growling?
he's freaked out from being trapped... cats react two ways -- lots of spitting/hissing/growling -- or they freeze-up

do you suspect he may be "feral"? If so - then don't let him out - you'll never get him back into a crate/trap

one way to "calm" him down is to cover the cage - it makes it darker inside and gives the cat some sense of security
