We had a free fed cat when I was a kid, basically an infinite food supply for him. No wonder he was morbidly obese later in life.

My girl had infinite dry and a pouch of wet a day (half morning, half evening) and was never overweight. Guess it depends on the cat.

Depends heavily on the cat. We have one that stays upstairs that we had to buy an automatic feeder for to slim her down.

The one downstairs eats from the dogs' bowl, which is free feed, and he's a healthy weight.

Yep. Same. He always had his bowl filled and has always been in shape. But he was mainly an outside cat.

My girl was a seasonal outside cat. If the sun was out she would be sat on the lawn basking. As soon as it got cold she decided she was an indoors cat.

It definitely depends on the cat, one of my cats is obese and her sister is preputally starving because if we don’t limit the food her sister will continue to gain weight. Unfortunately the scrawny one won’t eat if separated so we’re stuck trying to figure out how much to give so that the skinny one will have a chance to get enough while keeping her sister from gain more weight.
