muffers the pregnant cat

Is there anything you can do for sore nipples? It seems like she's in a lot of pain, they are very red and sore. I just want to know if there is anything I can do.

If they are dry and cracked, try a bit of olive oil.

If there is ANY chance at ALL that there might be infection, CALL THE VET.

That can mean mastitis, and that is painful and nasty for mom and not good for the kittens.

Udder Cream is the best for sore nipples. I use it for MooShoo's dry skin on his back feet. It's what the cow farmers use on the cow's udders (nipples) You can find it at any CVS or pet store. Ouch!! My boobs hurt just thinking about that poor kitty's problem.
