Befriending a stray cat

Last month, a stray cat appeared in my yard. I called to it to give a chicken bone but it kept a distance from me. It looked suspicious and starving at the same time. It came closer but afraid to take the chicken bone from my hand. So I put that chicken bone on the ground and then I left.

After that first meeting, the cat often reappeared in my yard. It might be because sometimes we gave it food. It started not being afraid and let me stroke its head. It even slept over on the desk near the entrance door of my house.
