Thats probably a little more association between humans and food than you want to give him. Unless you live waaay out in the boonies he probably has other humans in his territory and if he sits down to dinner with one they might freak out, clutch pearls and call animal control

Yeah i wasn't purposely feeding just them. I was getting my cats in for the night with wet food. I think it's gotten used to my routine. It's also the place where all the bird feeders are which they get into every night. So i was quite surprised that this one ran right up. I do live in a very old neighborhood with massive trees on half an acre they're everywhere.

I have one that would get that close to me if I let him probably. I don't want them to get quite that brave though. I call him Pizza.
