my 1yr old cat is due to give birth in about 2 weeks ( unless ive got the dates wrong).
at the end of january this yr she got pregnant for the first time but we didnt realise untill she was about 6 weeks, i didnt realise i needed to change her food so kept her on the same food i also had my mind on other things as i had a baby of my own on feb 25th.
she was due to have her kittens first/second wk in april but at the end of march she went into labour at the time i didnt realise she was early. At first i wasnt sure if she was in labour or not it started on the thursday night she wouldnt eat or drink wasnt really moving about and stayed where we cud see her and she was very quiet i kept trying to get her to eat or drink but she wouldnt she stayed the same on the friday then finally on saturday evening she decided to have them on the chair in the lounge
i first realised it was definately happening when i noticed water all on the chair from her she then started pushing the first one came out and she seemed like she didnt know what to do she slightly licked it then left it alone my partner had to take the sack off of it and rub it but unfortunately nothing happened and it was dead
we phoned the vets and spoke to them they basically said the wouldnt treat her if we took her in because there wasnt really any complications
almost 2hrs later he started pushing again after almost 30 mins of pushing she delivered the second baby again she wasnt interested we tried but this one was dead to.
an hr later she started pushing the last one out again she wasnt interested and we tried but we couldnt do anything. all three of her babies died
we phoned the vets again they said that the reason she wasnt intersested in them was probably because shes so young and didnt know what to do.
me and my partner looked at the kittens and realised that they were early and thats why they didnt live.
she became very depressed refused to eat of drink wouldnt clean herself i was having to force feed her for almost 3 weeks she was very ill and dehydrated but finally she came round and one morning started eating
because of what happened last time im very worried about her and the kittens does anyone know anything about when cats go into labour early and has anyone got any advice
please
