Yeah, I can see why the kitty would stay close. With that much food on the hoof, the only reason he would leave would be to find a "she cat". And even then he might bring her home with him. Most females like the prospect of easy pickings.
Keep us up-to-date. If you harvest him, I'd like to know how he tasted, (and don't say like chicken).LOL.
GOOD LUCK.

hey erv,
last year we had a female with 3 cubs here for a long time! i wasn`t worried about her she knows what she wants to eat, but the little one`s they only knew they wanted to eat!! them i was worried about, on the next road over a guy was chopping wood with his lab beside him and 1 came charging them in full daylight! he had to grab his dog and run for the house!!! a nieghbor was playing with the deer i day, they wanted to see what a lazer pointer would do to them, how they would react! after 4 or 5 minutes all the deer just bolted!! the next thing they knew the screen on the window went flying off! and this guy was staring at them, the wife began to scream "shut it off shut it off"" here`s why!!

whoa... now that may be a bit too close...

cripplehunter,
tried to pull down your site to see the damage to the window screen, and the message poped up that you had moved or removed the pic. I have a vision in my head about someone having to do some laundry shortly thereafter.
The critters are protected(?) here, but if one gets in my space, I'll be making Jerky also.

just worked for me erv.  But here's the pic.

Cherokee,
If I read you correctly, you wrote a citation to someone for feeding/baiting a Mountain Lion? If that's the case, you should have given them one for endangerment to children, pets and livestock, etc.
And, then they; (I know you can't fix stupid), should have been written up for Stupidity. Because they were idiots, you had to kill something that might have otherwise lived a normal life.
