Unneutered Tom cats will often wonder away from home when they smell a female cat in heat, or to look for a female in heat. It is common for them to always come home after a few days to a week later. Usually they return home pretty banged up from fighting with other male cats. I have also witnessed many different Tom cats around my own home when my female cat comes in heat.
The best thing to do, if you don't want your tom cat to leave home in search of a female, or to spray all over the house is to have him neutered. It could save his life. Cats that are neutered or spayed tend to live longer than those that are not and will not get certain cancers that intact cats may develop at some point in their lives.
