One of my cats used to be this way. She was also a former stray, so I assumed it was from that. It got worse when I started feeding her at specific times because she got too fat. I had a problem when I got a new cat though because he wouldn't eat everything in one go but I also couldn't free feed because then my girl would just eat everything. I gave her a dewormer (which I never did because they're indoor only cats) and while she did have some problems with diarrhea for a little while, the food obsession is totally gone now. So it may be worth it to see if there's an underlying issue at play. It's normal for former strays to be like this for a while but after a few months or years they should learn to trust there'll always be food.
She’s had multiple rounds of deworming. My vet has given her a clean bill of health, but yet she still eats all food like it’s the last in the world.
It’s going to be a challenge eventually - my girlfriend has two cats that free feed. If we move in together, my cat is going to need to learn to chill the hell out or we’re going to need to get one of those smart feeders and only authorize her cats.
