🎃🐾 Pumpkin for Pets: Helpful or Hype?
Pumpkin isn't just for Halloween! Plain, canned pumpkin is packed with fiber and can sometimes help dogs and cats with mild digestive issues, including constipation or diarrhea.
But not all pumpkin is created equal!
✅ Plain, 100% canned pumpkin is the way to go.
❌ Pumpkin pie filling contains added sugar and spices that aren't appropriate for pets.
And remember, pumpkin isn't a cure-all! Persistent vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation can signal something more serious and should be evaluated by your veterinarian.
