Hi,
I’m fostering a pregnant feral who is very overdue and I’d like your input.
The facts:
-On Nov. 30 was examined by a vet the day she was picked up who said they felt kittens and she was 1-2 weeks away from delivery
-when found she was very thin (ie didn’t look pregnant).
-eats 3x as much as a normal cat
-started to get bigger two weeks ago
-I can’t palpate her belly because she’s terrified. What little I’ve seen of her nipples they don’t look huge
-seems wrestless the past few days, changing positions in the cage every few hours. Didn’t eat much yest but just gobbled down a whole can of food
-has not had a bowel movement in a couple of days
-No licking, no visible contractions, no bloody show.
So many questions. Do vets ever misdiagnose pregnancy? A vet at a party I had on Sat seems amazed anyone could feel 35 Day fetuses. Could the babies have died? I could really use some input. Thanks.
