I don't know anything about attracting and taming feral kitties...I have more problems getting rid of the domesticated kind whose owners seem to think my place is a kitty vacation resort.

I'm awarding you 50 rewards points, however, for the Daffy Duck-Abominable Snowman reference (love that one)...and 10 additional points for going Seth MacFarlane and sticking it in there with no context or explanation.

(I have no idea what these points can be redeemed for, but I'd save 'em up just in case...you just never know).

Living with cats and dogs and horses and quite a few more uncommon pets for all my life,
I've done that several times,.
It needs a lot of patience, but it's worth the effort.
The younger they are the easier it is to tame them.
My last stray cat is sleeping beside me on the sofa right now.
She was more than half a year when I caught her half starved in winter.

Feed them as regularly as you can .... enough that they have no reason to look for food elsewhere for a week or two.
Try to feed them as near to the door as possible, leaving it open while they eat after some time.
Put the bowls on the threshold first, later into the house, but leave the house open (not nice in winter, but neccessary for a few days.) Make sure you don't frighten them while they eat. When you make them run only once, you have to start all over.
When they come into the house without hesitating, you can close the door behind them.
Keep them inside until you can touch their backs, while they eat.
It can take from 1 week to three months depending on what they have been through.
But EVERY cat can be tamed ..... it's only a question of time.
