Did you know that 100% Pumpkin (not the seasoned Pumpkin Pie Pumpkin in the can, if you give it to your pets use the 100% Pumpkin in the can), is great for tummy upsets and bowel issues that cats and dogs may have? (it helps with constipation AND loose bowels). When Cody was frequently on Pred, whenever he began a course of that medication we gave him approximately a 1/4 tsp of pumpkin once or twice a day to keep everything moving along.
Speaking of Cody, I wanted to re-post his adorable pumpkin photo from last year:
We also hope you enjoy this recipe! (I wish I could remember who gave this to me, I would credit them. I think I ate this at someone's home and they gave me the recipe but I can't remember who it was!)
Pumpkin Crunch Cake
1 box yellow cake mix
1 15 ounce can pumpkin
1 12 ounce can evaporated milk
3 eggs
1 1/2 Cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt

1 Cup melted butter
1 15 ounce can pumpkin
1 12 ounce can evaporated milk
3 eggs
1 1/2 Cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt

Maybe my human should try giving Binga some pumpkin... she's been having some, um, issues.
ReplyDeleteby all means yes you should!!! It helps for either problem!

ReplyDeleteLove the photo of Cody. And Hey! Now I reset the following, your blog post showed up in my feed. I wonder what was going on before. I'm sorry I missed your posts!
What??!! Carry you have never tried pumpkin? OMG you have to!! And...for the kitties only give them about 1/4 tsp to try. Thank you so much about Cody's photo and I am THRILLED to see you here! THANK YOU! I have a feeling it was the Feedburner issue that I am having (many Blogger blogs have stopped coming to my inbox for like a month and they haven't started back yet). Maybe that is what happened to you too. Thanks so much for visiting us you made my day!! xoxo

ReplyDeleteWe love pumpkin pie! And pumpkin bread...not the flavored coffee or ice cream so much, MOL!
