If its in their DNA to hunt and be ferocious how were people able to make it so those traits became passive or safe for them to be around humans?

Trial and error on the part of the cats. Humans would chase off or kill dangerous cats but generally ignore the passive cats. Cats were useful for hunting pest and humans would share food supplies to keep friendly cats around.
