Who said anything about flying off with it? They kill with a bite to the neck, and they can eat their fill right where the kill is made if they're not disturbed. They don't kill prey with their talons.
If an eagle were to attack a cat, it would likely do so from the air and use its sharp talons to grasp and carry it away, rather than using its beak to kill the cat on the ground. It would be a struggle is my point, far from "just a snack".
On the ground is even worse. But down vote away lol.
They are formidable to 5 pound prey.
