I found some at Whole Foods last week. Maybe I should go buy some more. All the grocery stores are out of it.

I had a similar problem last week, and went to about 4-5 grocery stores and no canned pumpkin. Out of desperation, I looked in our pantry to see if anything else might work, my mom suggested mandarin oranges. I figured it wouldn't do any harm, and after three little mandarin oranges and 10-15 minutes, the problem was solved. I just wanted to mention this in case anyone else has this problem, I don't believe that the oranges would do any harm, and really just a little bit seemed to help.

Whole Foods def has it! It's $2.99 a can. The closest one to you is about 53 miles away, so you may want to buy a few.
Stores | WholeFoodsMarket.com

I was told that the terrible weather we have had caused the shortage. Pumpkin will now be sold as a "seasonal" item only in grocery stores...apparently everywhere!

Does not work the same as pumpkin. I bought a sweet potato and mircowaved it and made his treats with it, but it didn't help him poop. If it did, it wasn't as quick. I make Prince these patties with pumpkin and other healthy foods, and keep the batch in the freezer. He'll have a patty every other day, or so. They are low cal, made in the US, and Mr. Picky loves them.
