Eren's not necessarily any better with animals than she is—the Survey Corps horses are about the closest thing he's had to a pet to watch over. He hadn't had much luck charming Armin's bahari, or Jean's. But lucky for them, Mochi isn't a particularly capricious or hard to please creature. Even for a housecat.
He's still a housecat, though. Eren straightens and steps away to sit himself on his bunk and take off his boots. Assuming, as Mikasa had, that the cat will make for the food. He does, at first. Walks (waddles...) over to the scrap of meat to sniff it, lick it once or twice. But, losing interest, he soon turns his nose back up toward Mikasa.
And meows again for attention. So maybe it isn't that he's hungry.]
