The vet recommended that I give my cat Metamucil for constipation but didn't say what kind I should use. I noticed that there are two unflavored types: Smooth Texture - Sugar free (Psyllium Husk, Citric Acid, and Maltodextrin) and Coarse Milled - Original Texture (Psyllium Husk and Citric sucrose). Which one of these should I use?
My cat doesn't like canned pumpkin (the plain kind, of course) which is what the vet first recommended. Would it be ok to use baby food squash? Beech-Nut has a Butternut squash and Gerber has just squash. I'd prefer trying squash before trying Metamucil. Of course, if anyone knows how to make the canned pumpkin more palatable, I'd rather try that.
