{QUESTION}Hi Our cat gave birth to three kittens five weeks ago and has been taking good care of them until about three days back. Then she just stopped breast feeding them all of a sudden. The kittens try very hard to feed from her but she strictly avoids. However she still stays around them, answers to their calls and keeps them safe within her sight. Her breasts don't appear to be inflammed. Since she goes out of the house, we gave her the contraceptive injection along with anti rabies vaccine one week back according to our vet's advice. Even after the injection she fed them as usual for about four days. Then this sudden change. The kittens eat solid food now but always demand milk from mother cat when ever they get the chance sadly to no avail. Can you please explain why this has happened? Has the contraceptive injection got anything to do with it?
