Why is my 6-month cat constantly hungry with loose, orange poop?

Question

My 6month male cat is hungry all the time. He's always been really food motivated, and we found him as a stray so I always thought that it was his habit from being a stray. However, he eats A LOT more than my other adult cats. His poop is loose (not watery) and a brownish/orange color. I thought maybe switching foods would help (he eats dry food mixed with water) but it's still the same. I just want some idea of what I should ask the vet when I take him.

It could be Bart has intestinal worms. Those can be common kittens, and can lead to them being hungry all the time. It would also cause the loose poop. Bring a sample of his poop with you for the vet to examine for intestinal worms.
