    We have a guest...

    ...a very pregnant mezzer I trappet, or more excatly she let me pick her up, on Friday at work. She was obviously and indoor cat. She is a purring machine

    The vet think she is around two or three years old.
    Her left front leg was limping.We found a punture there and was swollen, so she got an x-ray to be sure her leg wasn't broken. She also had a bad cold.
    She is healing from both nicely.Being pampered and cared for,indoors, helps


    Attached is the scanned x-ray plaque.Could you guess how many babies she is carrying?

    What a beautiful girl, what on earth is she doing out getting pregnant, she should be indoors being taken care of.
    And thank you for posting the x-ray picture, I have never seen an x-ray of babies before! How amazingly wonderful is that picture! I'm guessing five babies

    Poor baby! How lucky she was that you found her, Anna! She is gorgeous.
    I'm guessing that she is carrying five babies?

    I am also guessing 5, but have never seen an x-ray of babies before.

    What a pretty girl!

    She definitely has Siamese in her! Wow, she is lovely. I think 5, possible 6.

    Do I win some catnip?

    I also guess at 5.

    She looks like a purebred! Just in case - check the lost and found ads, and the shelters too!

    If she was dumped...well, the less said about the "owners", the better.

    Bless you for taking her in - she is beautiful, and looks so happy...and so full of kittens!

    Bless you for taking in this very pretty girl. Now, this is just my opinion, but, with a punture wound that has her limping, a bad cold and being pregnant, if she does belong to someone, they DON'T deserve her back. It is very obvious she is NOT being taken care of.

    Could the vet not give you an estimate time as to when she will have her babies? Also, it depends on the size of the carrier, but personally, I think this would be to small for her to have her babies in. A nice big box with some old towels or blanket would be good, so that you could change them for cleaner ones after she is finished giving birth, as it can get pretty messy.

    Good luck with this precious girl and please keep us posted on how she is doing.

    Anna You are amazing and wonderful to take care of Minette. She's a beautiful little girl and obviously needs a lot of TLC at the moment. I hope for her and for you that everything goes well and the babies are healthy.

    One step at a time - who knows maybe you will have a beautiful blue-eyed girl

    Hugs,

    Minette is a beautiful Meezer girl!
    Looking at the X-ray picture, it looks like 5 kittens.
    Is that how many the vet told you to expect?
    I do hope you keep us posted with lots of pictures when she has the kittens.
    RIP sweet Samantha

    But my eyes are old, and I could be wrong.

    She sure is a gorgeous girl and my guess is also 5. Bless you for being able to take her in and care for her. I can't wait to see pictures of the kittens.
