I have a 6 month Male Maine Coon on dry gluten free kitten food but I feel like he is not satisfied. Always wants people food. Never had a cat go after my dinner with such determination before. Should I add some wet food with his dry? Will that fill him more? Or is it a Maine Coon thing? lol

Yes, he should be getting wet food as well. Wet food is actually a lot better for cats since it increases their water consumption. This is especially important to males, who are prone to urinary issues. How much are you feeding him now?

I let him feed when he needs to. I'll try some wet in the morning I guess. Thank you.

Try leaving dry food down all the time for snacking and feeding 2-3 meals of wet food per day. Kittens under a year can eat as much as they want.

Agreed, give him some wet food. You could try starting at 3x a week. Try your best and don't give in when he begs for human food. Hopefully he'll eventually get the picture that you won't feed him from the dinner table.
