When Daisy May, a feral, had her kittens 4 years ago, I went in to feed her and she was in the midst of having one of them! She gave me such a growl and stink eye; I left her food and crept out. She never did warm up to me, but her kittens were awesome. Good luck with your crew!
Make that 3. Baby #3 is here. Looks like another blackie. Had to once again break the sac, cut the cord and the whole deal. She is laying down now quite tranquil. All babies are feeding.
I think she may have one more in there yet. So will have to keep a close eye on her. She is doing well and not showing any signs right now.
I have a wonderful vet. Though he is in vacation in the center of Italy with his family he called me about 20 minutes ago to see how the cat was doing. I was impressed as I have not seen that in a single vet here up to this point.
COOL!!!!!! 3 babies!!! This is so exciting!!!
Wow, I was very nervous reading through this thread! I'm glad momma and babies are doing well so far. I'll pray that everything continues to go smoothly. You sound calmer than me, I'd be scared out of my wits! :eek:
I had to go out for a short while and couldn't get Mommycat and her babies off my mind. What a relief to know things are going well. Misty is beautiful and her first precious baby looks healthy not to mention adorable!
You have done a fantastic job here, bless you! :love:
So glad it's going well. It's been 15 years since I've witnessed a birth, but as I read, it's coming back.
Bless you for helping her.
got an issue. The last kitten born is not eating. He is super weak. They were all eating before so I don't know what's going on. He is the runt and was born breach. Momma isn't rejecting, he is rejecting her if you want to put it like that. There is no KRM available here. I would have to find out what else is available. I am sure there is something but don't know what. What can I give him now? It is 11:10 pm here and nothing is open before 8:30 am. I am afraid we will lose him through the night.
3 babies, two black. Was the other one grey like mama??
Actually Donna, one is black & white and the other 2 which I thought were black are actually gray like momma.
:eek: WoW you sound like a Great Mid Wife.. Congrats on the babies.. Pics soon ok.. Your doing a Great Job && so glad you could be there with momma & babies..
You did a good thing, Michelle. Thank you!!! Glad everyone (especially YOU!!) is okay and healthy. Mama needs nutrition now that she's feeding 4 babies. Nutrical is a great supplement. Also, feed her canned kitten food. When Mattie Grace was pregnant, I used to boil her chicken livers. She LOVED them!!!
:love:
Donna
At least try to get some water into him with a syringe, and see if you can encourage him to nurse after that.
I put a call in to my vet but everyone is busy so I'm waiting for a call back. In the meantime, I called another vet and I was told to NOT give it human milk b/c it will cause severe diarrhea and that can't be good for a newborn who is already weak. KMR is suggested but if it isn't available to you, I don't know what else to suggest. My late vet would know a formula to give it so, hopefully, my current vet may know of one, too. As soon as I hear anything, I'll pass the info on to you. I hope the little one holds on 'til then.
