Need Help ASAP...Bella the feral had babies

[catnapper]

Not much advice but wishing you plenty of luck! I do know that feeding mama kitten food -- and lots of it will make sure she gets enough nutrients. Make sure she has lots of water too, especially since its getting hot out now.

I went this morning and bought her a 2Kg bag of Royal Canin kitten food along with some high quality wet food, all natural. She has food and water available 24/7 and she trusts me and my husband.

Could you maybe prepare a box for her with a rope attached to it. Then you could use a broom handle to push it in closer...maybe she'll move the babies into it and then you could pull it back out??

I don't know if I should disturb the nest at all. I don't want to do something like this and then have her feel insecure and moved the babies.

Aw geez, crazy vet!!!!

If you disturb the "nest" too much, Bella will move the babies. Since you know where they are, you feel it is a secure place, and she is coming to you for food, maybe just let things be until the kittens are mobile. If she moves the little ones, you won't know where, may not be able to find them, and it may not be a secure a spot.

Buy the highest quality food you can get for her. Best!

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe it is best to let her be where she feels secure and safe. The last thing I want is for her to move those babies to somewhere I can't find them or a unsafe place.

Hubby just had another peek at her and the babies first she covered them with her paw but then she realized it was Guido and relaxed and let him see them(not touch). She rolled back a little and stretched out her neck to give a little sniff and then rolled back and settled in with the babies again. He is offering her some food now to see if she is interested as she hasn't eaten much really. She has eaten about 30 g of dry and 100g of wet from the morning but nothing since. She did have a nice drink too before she went back to her babies. He took my phone with him in hopes she will feel comfortable enough to let him take a picture but he will not do it if she seems at all uncomfortable or stressed.

I will let you guys know how things are going.

Oh yeah the vetting here is much different. We called this morning and asked them what we should be feeding her and were told 'Oh whatever you want. Whatever you were feeding her before is fine just give her more.' They charge a fortune for everything a spay will cost me about €250,00. But it will be done as soon as possible. I don't need her getting pregnant again. She is only 8 months old after all and she will be so much better off not having more. I am just kicking myself in the butt for not getting her before this happened. Unfortunately I had to gain her trust first. And when that happened it was too late.

Thanks guys for the support & advice.
Michelle, Bella & babies
