Yes, I’ve been giving her kitten formula as well, even before she gave birth. She’d pant only for less than a minute then she’d be back to normal. I noticed when she stops panting, she’d often leave the kittens and stay away from them, maybe to rest? Then she’d yo back again after a couple of...
I followed your instruction to feed the kitten every two hours. :) I’ve started feeding it since yesterday morning.
I don’t know what it means but ever since I syringe fed the small kitten, momcat would randomly bring the other kittens to me, one by one.
Momcat would pant with her mouth open...
Runty weighs 70 grams only. While the other kittens all weight 120. Should I still syringe feed even though the kitten occasionally nurses from the momcat?
This is the runt in the litter. He’s too small and seems to prefer to just sleep instead of feed. I kept putting it to the teat of momcat but it seems uninterested to feed or probably too weak. Since it doesn’t seem to get enough nourishment, I gave it 2.5ml of pet milk through syringe. I...
Thanks for this great tip, too! They’re just in my room under the closet. She chose to give birth there over other options and boxes we’ve made for her. We just set up a heat lamp to give the kittens extra warmth. :)
The daddy has already been neutered a week or two ago but we still keep him...
Oh! Thanks for this! Really really helpful! You guys made this journey very memorable to us.
Was honestly surprised she gave birth to 5 seemingly large kittens. The vet’s estimate during ultrasound and xray was only 2-3. But they did say it could be more since they looked like they were hugging...
Hello there!
Just wanna give you guys an update that Airi gave birth to 5 healthy kittens. We’ll bring her to the vet tomorrow for checkup and also to spay her. Thank you so much for all your help!
Hello! I am just wondering, cos she was supposed to have given birth by now if the mating started on April 9(they stopped mating April 13, iirc cos I was just in my room quarantining)We brought her to the vet two weeks ago for an xray and we were told that the kittens are really big and healthy...
Would just like to thank you all for your responses. I brought Airi to the vet for ultrasound and per the vet’s estimate, she’s carrying two kittens. She also said that she might give birth by next week, which I think is quite early given the stud phase occurred April 9-13 which means she’s only...
Thank you! Have you ever tried sending your cat for ultrasound? Got confused cos I thought by the third week, it can already be done. Apparently not, just yet.
Thank you for your reply! We’d def keep the kitten/s should she be pregnant. Our vet talked to us about this possibility and said she’ll help us prepare should it be the case, pre and post-pregnancy. We have already scheduled the male cat to be neutered this coming Friday.
While I was on...
Can someone please share their thoughts whether my cat is expecting or not? I’m quite not sure if this is what they call “pinking up”. I have already tried to talk to several veterinary clinics with ultrasound facility and was all advised that the cat should be at least 35 days from the time...
