Personally I do not believe in free feeding because when I had 2 dogs it was kind of hard to be sure who finished the food. I also had a cat at the same time and invariably one of the dogs would finish the cat food. Put the cat food dish on top of the counter. The cat can jump up to get it; the dogs cannot. Worked fine for me for 9 years. As for the free feeding, I always free-fed my animals, until I adopted a little piglet cat who would eat almost continuously as long as food was available. We had to switch her to diet cat food as well as limit the availability, and she's still a chunky little monkey. Honestly, switching to mostly wet will get the weight off her far more effectilely.
