chosen.content: The main difference between feral cats, also called strays or alley cats, and house cats is the amount of time they spend in the company of humans. While house cats spend most or all of their lives living inside a house surrounded by people, feral cats have little if any contact with humans.
  
  1. Sociability
  Anyone who has run afoul of a feral cat will tell you they are very anti-social. Most feral cats will run away from humans at first sight. They also hiss, spit, and will claw if someone gets too close.  Most feral cats live together in a colony and have no use or interest in people. However, feral kittens can be domesticated if taken from the colony or rescued before they are four months old. After that, there is very little chance to domesticate a feral kitten.
  
  2. Behavior Modification
  Modifying a feral kitten's behavior is challenging but quite possible. Depending on the kitten's temperament, it can take as little as two weeks before the kitten learns to trust people and positively interact with them. If the feral kitten is skittish or afraid, it will take longer but is still very doable. The main requirement is to be patient with the kittens and committed to their domestication.
  
  3. Trap-Neuter-Release
  The TNR program was designed to control the feral cat population. The cat is trapped, neutered then released back into the wild, preferably back to its colony. Along with neutering, the cats receive the rabies vaccine and usually have the tip of one ear cut off to mark that they have been neutered. Although the program has helped reduce the feral cat population, more cats need to go through the TNR program to effectively reduce their numbers.
