I have not yet weighed them but I do intend to find a scale so that I can.
She is still holding on. I have kept up with the percussion at least every couple hours and have given her a syringe-full (altogether) throughout the day of kitten formula. Not too happy with that at all but she is very...
They are not being hand fed - I have mom. But this one stopped nursing like the other one did. I've been doing some gentle percussion on the lungs and now trying to keep her head down so maybe gravity can assist with fluid..

Young cat currently birthing - I read the birthing article but I just would like some reassurance. 3 kittens came out over a few hours. No problems, everything is fine and they are cleaned and dry and nursing. I only saw one placenta and it seemed like she kind of just left it alone because it...
