I’m so sorry about the kitten. I know your heart hurts, but you really did your best. Sometimes kittens have birth defects that show up when they grow a bit, as StefanZ said. I’ll light a candle for the kitten tonight. Did he have a name? Sending you comforting vibes.

It sounds like your cat may be either dreaming or purring. Is she still producing milk?

She is still producing milk.She could be dreaming I guess I have had cats most of my life and have never had a cat that vibrates she is not makeing purring sounds when she dose it and I don't feel the purring type of vibration on her throat if I place my finger on it. It's just so strange

Do you have any interest in having her foster motherless shelter kittens?

No I don't only because she barely produced enough milk for her one kitten because she did not get the proper nutrients during most of her pregnancy. She is a bit underweight and we are trying to fatten her up she is now up to about 7 pounds so still small but getting healthier
