Once you've made sure they've had their shots and a clean bill of health, it will take A LOT of patience to socialize them. They are young enough to still be socialized. Your best bet is to just let be aware of your presence. Feed them, pay attention to them inthe cage and give them a couple of weeks to become familiar with the sounds and scents of your home. Remember, they are totally stressed right now because everything is unfamiliar to them and they have not made your home thier territory yet. Once they get familiar with thier surroundings and the humans that are there, allow them out and try treats to get them to come to you, but don't handle them until THEY are comfortable with it. I suggest wearign long sleeves until they get comfortable. Search online for cat socialization suggestions. Cats that start out feral will bodn with you if you allow them thier time and space.
