That's awesome! Do you have any pics?Just wanted to say my kitty gave birth really early this morning so I woke up to 5 kittens! No problems all Hoping everything goes well and your kittens arrive soon
No babies I bought a thermonter and took her temp under her arm said 99.1 F I have no idea what I should be looking for do you? I'm sorry you haven't gotten to see Tigger I'm sure she will be so happy to see you when you pick her upkris cowden how's Ash doing any babies yet?
She might hate me for that but I can try! Any advice would be helpfulI'm sorry I don't really, a cats normal body temperature taken anally should be between 100 - 102.5 and it is said to drop to below 100 between 96-99F... I can tell how to take her temperature anally if you like!
Please don't take her temperature anallyShe might hate me for that but I can try! Any advice would be helpful
I'm not 100% sure as I don't believe it works myself. But I think you take one or two degrees off if taking it in the armpit compared to anally.I wasn't looking forward to doing that thanks for the advice! How about underarm temp how to you know what to look for? I know the kittens will come when it's time but it's driving me mad waiting
Thank you I took hers earlier it was 99.1 she was sleeping and my son rubbed her tummy while I did it she didn't even know what was going in! I wouldn't hold her down to do it that would stress her out! I'm just so excited for these babies to get here!I'm not 100% sure as I don't believe it works myself. But I think you take one or two degrees off if taking it in the armpit compared to anally.
So normal body temperature under armpit should be about 98-100.
Then as labour is about to start it drops another 1-2 degrees. So about 96-98 degrees - I think it's something like this
