My cat conceived exactly 70 days ago, is that too long for her to be pregnant? This is her first litter but I don't know if that would affect the length of her pregnancy.
You are SURE on the days? Its not unusual the first mating didnt took, but there was an occasion for a second one.My cat conceived exactly 70 days ago, is that too long for her to be pregnant? This is her first litter but I don't know if that would affect the length of her pregnancy.
Also, I've never felt the kittens move.My cat is an indoor cat, that's the only reason I know the exact date of conception. I actually brought the male inside because I thought it was unfair to have her fixed without letting her experience motherhood once.(Dumb, I know)
She seems to be acting normal, but she's been having a bloody discharge for about 5 days. I could tell she was having contractions for the first 2 or 3 days but I think they've stopped. She's eating and drinking normally and she doesn't seem to be in any pain so I'm not sure what to think.
Yes, I agree with SArthur. Your later messages hints, from a fairly normal situation, although long pregnancy, you may suddenly got a crash vet case...Also, I've never felt the kittens move.
Saw in another thread the poster made about this very situation, saying in response to someone urging her to take them to the vet, that they can't afford a vet.I’ll admit I don’t know much about pregnant cats and labour but this honestly sounds like a really bad situation with a labour that has gone on far too long. You need to get her to a vet right away, your mama cat could easily die as well if she doesn’t get those babies out soon.
Get her to a vet straight awayOkay my cat is in labor right now has been in very strong labor for about a day and a half started labor almost a week ago but kind of stopped anyway the first baby that she's trying to deliver is dead and I don't know what to do she can't seem to push it out. Please help me tell me what to do
Sorry, its crash vet... Anything else will prob lead to a slow and painful death for her.The head is out but she can't push the rest of it's body out
I wouldn't rely just on youtube videos for something life threateningOmg, this is urgent and bad situation. I believe it the kitten’s head and shoulders are out you can help to gently get it out -there’s a couple of videos on YouTube vet giving a demo how to do it. BUT - she’s likely to have other dead kittens in her, you need to get her to vet ASAP. It does cost money - use credit card and you shall be able to pay instalments etc.
To be honest, I think all pets owners shall ensure they’re willing to cover the costs of their beloved pets when in illness. Pregnancy is very high risk, few insurance companies would cover it. I was selfish enough to let my baby girl taking the risk, so it’s only fair to commit to do whatever possible for her health. I hope you’d do what’s necessary for your girl.
I agree and I too suggested this. the problem is, to be fairly sure to manage, you must do it together simultaneously with mommas pushing. Ie, she must push again...Omg, this is urgent and bad situation.

Yes I said so too - even if this one’s out, more are probably in her and vet’s needed asap.I wouldn't rely just on youtube videos for something life threatening
vet is essential, even if the OP does get the kitten out by themself
