Kitten always hungry - change of food?

I have a 9 month old part Siamese male (neutered) kitten.

He is always hungry, he is also a bit of a scavenger.

He has been wormed etc.

He is currently on Felix kitten food (wet) has never really been keen on dry food or biscuits and is quite fussy as will only eat one particular type of felix kitten. About an hour after he has eaten he is fussing for more food. He currently has 4 or 5 pouches a day will still fuss for more.

I'm thinking of putting him on a better quality of food to see if it satisfies him more.

Does anyone have an suggestions please? preferably not too hard and dry.

Sainsburys do a cereal free kitten pouch, I’ve never rated whiskas or Felix as they don’t seem to stay full on them for very long.

A kitten will easily eat 4-5 pouches a day though, they are little eating machines for the first year.

I used to put off trips to the kitchen as I knew a starving Bengal kitten would follow me doing the “bowl empty” miaow which was very loud & not heard after he’d stopped growing.

My Norwegian forest kitten is free feeding so his biscuit bowl is always topped up, same as my ragdoll cats. Maybe you could get some good quality biscuits to keep topped up for him to graze on?
