Yes, canned pumpkin works for constipation. I just had to use it yesterday on Lily. It takes about 30 min to 1 hour to work. I use the rule of 1 teaspoon per pound. They aren't too crazy about it so you may need to mix it in with some wet food or use a syringe. Make sure you use pure pumpkin without added sugar. Be careful how much you give or it will result in diarhea
