Wait until they're a year old before changing the food up and if they are really fat especially in the belly it might be worms! So de-worm them just in case!! Do they go outside? Do they kill and eat mice or rats? This may be where worms may have come from if that's the issue!

I've had more dogs than cats but for the one cat that I did have, I left dry (only) food out all the time. She never emptied the bowl and never got fat. She also came from the shelter.

Don't keep food out for them at night. When I did that, my cats got fat. So, I kept food out for them all day, but not at night.

We give our cats a tin or packet of wet food between the two of them in the morning, another one tea time 5pm ish.  Then at bed time they have dry food, they stay in during the night.  Sometimes they have treats, flavoured biscuits,  or prawns. They also like a little fresh fish, and some of the white cod when we have fish and chips. They are older now, but we used to feed them simular when they were kittens, but smaller portions and more often.
