Kerry, Actually, it is progress!  They ate in front of you.  I'd take it up a notch.  When they're hungry, instead of putting it down for them right away, kneel down low with the bowl close to you, toss them a piece at a time and get them used to understanding that the food is coming directly f

Kerry, That's what I do.  Sit next to them while they eat in there until they get comfortable with your presence.  Then start by just touching the door without actually moving it.  If they scoot out, tell them they're silly for being such scaredy cats!  Keep this up till they let you touch the

try force-fondling when you first get ferals in--while still caged/crated/in confined area, get out your welding or teflon or elkskin gloves, and let them hiss and growl and bite to their little hearts' content, petting those special places (base of tail, behind the ears, etc) all the while aft
