So one of the stray/feral cats in our area has taken to frequenting our porch for meals. Greycat is very skittish - won't come out while we're around at all. I've been putting food out for him and he comes by regularly for breakfast and dinner, but doesn't see any more willing to come around while we're outside. So my question is: how long can it take before Greycat realizes we're trying to help? If we can catch him/her (we have no idea which it is although we're leaning towards him because of the size of his head) we'll bring him in, do the spay/neuter and vet and try to integrate, but I'm worried about how long it can take because we're considering moving. The last two backyard cats came in fairly willingly, so I reall yhave no idea how long it can take to tame a stray.
