So my cat gave birth to 1 kitten about midnight last night, we missed the birth and when she checked she had already cleaned the kitten. So I don't know what happened to the afterbirth, I'm hoping that it came out and she just ate it as I hate to think of it still being inside her.
I'm not sure if there's any more kitties to come out, she was thin all through her pregnancy and we never saw/felt any kitten movements. I still don't now, so it's hard to tell.
It's been almost 24 hours, she's eating, drinking and caring for her 1 kitten very well... hasn't left his side all day. She seems very content.
Would we know by now if there were any problems? Such as a retained placenta or stuck kittens? She *seems* totally fine but I don't know whether to just take her to the vets just in case? But I worry she'd get very distressed as she is a skittish cat.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
