Hello Sara

I am in the same position, I have a stray Mommy and little one who have been hanging around. At first they would run away the minute they heard anyone coming. I have taken to feeding them over the last few weeks and while I have been feeding them I have talked to them. That way they start to recognize my voice. We have now reached the point where they don't run away or hiss at me any more. We haven't quite gotten to the point where I can get really close to them, but that will come with time (I hope).

The ultimate goal is to catch them. There is someone in the complex who will take the kitten and we are trying to do a TNR for the Mommy. So hopefully everything will turn out. But it takes time, so give yourself plenty of time for the tabby to get used to you.
