Attention and care is the first. Then giving them a well balanced food, cat foods inclusive. Animals can hear us and assuring them that they are safe is a big way to allow them trust you.

Patience is the key when it comes to dealing with cats that grew up on the streets and have been exposed to harsh treatments and conditions which makes them traumatized. Don't rush anything with them. Introduce things to them and show them care.
