I am not sure that I understand your question. There is not one type of food that will make Jerry hang around the house and not leave. Additionally, if Jerry is not neutered, this will generally result in extensive roaming behavior. I recommend to have him neutered and this may help him to stay around the house more but it is all dependent upon his personality. Please feel free to post any additional questions.
