CALICO delivered 7 kittens completely tangled umbilical cord and amniotic sacks nnn only two had been chewed/removed by mamma. They were so tangled that I couldn't get to a portion of cord to tie and cutn
Nonexistent to one kitten had cord around his neck, another wrapped entire back end and another just a leg tabgled in the mass. The others were easier to separate...
I read this post.I don't know what to do about umbilical cords being tangled and can't afford a vet.
Then did my best with the help of my best friend and we took the calculated risk of just cutting to save life of the one at risk of strangulation.
They are all living. They are all vying for chichi to nurse.
We separated mamma as recommended in above post for cew minutes and brought ber back to seveb bungry babies and cresh bedding.
Thank you all for the advice previously posted it made all the difference!!!!
I don't have a scale to weigh them but im keeping a close eye on all. They seem to be doing well...
Any more advice anyone???
Thanks
