Update:
Grey, Black and Ginger1 have gained 6-10g yesterday, however Ginger 2 lost 3 grams so I started to supplement today twice so far and I can’t say it’s been going very well. He hates it and wriggles like crazy and I am not sure if he swallows much of it.
I have seen all the videos but...
Babies are seemingly doing well, there was no more moving them about and mom is caring for them all well.
There were some gains:
Grey: 117
Black: 130
Ginger1: 134
Ginger2: 129
The grey and ginger2 are definitely having more trouble latching on and quite often I have to help them to find a spot...
Mom is getting plenty of food and has formula as well but she doesn’t like it. I think she is not eating enough although I try to encourage her. She has graciously accepted half of my steak last night 🙃
She could be anywhere but wants to be in that box, who knows why?
Will be measuring them...
Thank you! She is on the smaller side and I am wondering if she does not have enough milk.
I like the idea of the pet carrier but ours is too small,I will order a larger one. Would be good not to worry if they were gonna spend the night all together.
I only handle them when I measure them, and...
Thank you for your reply, I am vey grateful. I followed your advice regarding the nest and they were happy in it until last night when Mom came out and started nervously looking around and then moving one of the kittens into one of my daughter’s toybox. (Daughter has been temporarily moved out...
It has been a few tiring days, Midge has been great with the kittens, staying with them all the time, not even leaving them to feed herself, so I had to present food right in front of her. However, neither of the kittens has been gaining the 10/day by far so I have been making sure everybody’s...
Midge went into labour today at 11am and so far delivered 4 healthy kittens, very quickly, all feeding happily 👍😁 I am so happy and she did amazingly 😀
I have 2 questions please: the last 5 minutes she started to act as if she was gonna vomit. She has eaten 2 of the placentas but left the...
It is much the same, she is well, kittens moving, perhaps dropped a bit. She has clearly had enough of me trying to feel her tummy every 10 minutes and is desperate to get out of the house 🙄
I talked to a different vet at the same practice yesterday over the phone, and I was told that they were...
Thank you so much for taking the time to reply.
I am taking her to the University’s small animal practice, they are the best equipped around here with a hospital unit and should be the most knowledgable 🙄 I think they said that for an x-ray they would need to sedate her and they didn’t want to...
Our 15 months old cat, Midge is pregnant (we had a visit of un unneutered stray tom who we now have adopted) and we are having problems with the birth. She had a health check with the vet two weeks ago, who thought it would be a larger litter and would be due in 1-3 weeks. I was guesstimating...
