I currently feed two. One has been coming around for a couple of years and 
the other showed up this summer. In both cases it took a long time before 
I could get close enough to pet them. Neither like sudden moves nor will 
they come into the house. The older one did come in once to look around 
but the other won't cross the threshold. 

I've no ideas what their histories are but I don't think they were good.
