Well, I've known it as a cure (source of fiber?) for diarrhea - don't
know if it works as a laxative too, some things deal with both... For
example, homeopathic Nux Vomica is in many cases a solution for both.
But lactulose is a solution for constipation (as is vitamin C), and not
diarrhea.

Can someone remind me, is pumpkin supposed to be a laxative, or a cure for
diarrhea? Some people on the Sphynx rescue list are feeding it to their
cats as treats, and I'm curious as to if this is a good idea (will feeding
it to "normal" cats make them get diarrhea or become constipated?)

I collect KMR kitten formula labels for Bazil, a 3 yr old special needs
cat who must live on a liquid diet for the rest of his life.
Bazil's caretaker collects labels and sends them to KMR, where they add up
until she earns a free can of formula!
PLEASE save your KMR kitten formula labels for Bazil!
If you use KMR, even just one can, please email me for the NEW address to
send them to!

Does your cat have chronic diarrhea that does not respond to treatment, or
has your cat been loosely diagnosed as IBD?
Have you tested for Tritrichomonosis? The test is new, the new drug makes
it curable.
Ask me today how you can test for Trich!
