🎃 Diarrhea in Your Pet? Try Pumpkin Purée!

💩 Your Pet Suddenly Has Soft Stools?

Don’t worry! Several factors can cause temporary digestive upset. Common causes include:

• A sudden change or rapid transition in diet

• Recent arrival in a new home, which can cause stress

• Ingestion of food or objects outside

• During snowmelt, some pets drink stagnant water from puddles or streams, which may contain bacteria

Pumpkin Purée: A Gentle, Natural, and Effective Solution

Rich in soluble fiber, pumpkin purée can help regulate your pet’s digestive system during diarrhea by:

• Absorbing excess water in the stool

• Soothing the intestinal tract

• Promoting a return to normal bowel movements

⚠️ Important to Know

The recommended amount of pumpkin purée is 1 teaspoon (5 ml) per 15 lbs (7 kg) of body weight.

✅ Give this dose mixed with their food, then wait for the next stool.
➡️ If the stool remains soft, you can repeat the dose one more time.

⚠️ Note:

Too much pumpkin purée can have the opposite effect! Because it is very high in fiber, an excessive dose can worsen diarrhea instead of improving it.
👉 It’s essential to follow the recommended dosage to enjoy its benefits safely.

✅ When used correctly, pumpkin purée is very effective in regulating your pet’s intestinal transit.

🎃 Where to Find It?

You can find 100% natural, unsweetened pumpkin purée at affordable prices in most pet specialty stores. Make sure it contains no added sugar or spices, just pure pumpkin.

⚠️ Caution for Diabetic Pets

Although pumpkin purée is beneficial in many cases, it may have a high glycemic index.
👉 It is therefore recommended to use it with caution for pets with diabetes and always under your veterinarian’s advice.
