Hello. We had a very pregnant cat brought into our rescue 2 days ago. She looks like she could deliver any day. She seems to be having contractions now, and we've noticed a discharge from her vulva area. From everything I've read, it says it should be clear, but hers is more of a tannish color...

Hello. I found a young kitten in our wood pile outside this afternoon. I'm guessing it is around 6-8wks old. It's horribly cold here, so I brought it in and wrapped it in a warm towel. Once it's body temp.was good, I offered food and it ate well. I'm feeding Chicken Soup for the Kitten Soul...

Our momma cat came to us as a pregnant outside stray. We brought her in the house about a month ago and she used the litter box like a champ. Now, 4 days ago she decided to completely quit using her litter box. It was always kept clean, so not sure why she quit using it. We found where she was...
