Feed Pumpkin to Your Kitty.

Brought to you by Dr. Gary Weitzman. Ever wonder what you are going to do with the extra pumpkin you may have when you buy pie pumpkins and cut them up to make a pie, and have way to much after it has been cooked? I know give it to your kitties. But only the part that hasn't been sweetened yet. Sure you could make two pies or three, but the health benefits to your kitty is really great. Fresh cooked cooled pumpkin and cooked pumpkin seeds can offer the needed fiber your cat needs. The pumpkin also is a good source of antioxidants for your cat. This will give them nice shiny healthy coats and improved skin. I can see Jekyll will be getting some pumpkin real soon. Hope he will eat it. My poor boy has very dry skin. I think if I mix it with his daily ration of canned food it may just work out. The pumpkin could also aid in weight loss for that overly large cat you may have, and again Jekyll fits the description. Also when you get around to it make yourself a pie, pumpkin is really good for humans, just watch the extras, like whipped cream. go for the low fat stuff or just enjoy plain.
