It is tricky to determine, so I don't blame any first-timers, but it's quite simple after experiencing it so many times. The females have what almost looks like a little pin-poke right under the anus, and the boys have a teeny little fuzzy hump which are obviously the testicles, and it's a little further down from the anus. If you can get really good pics with the flash on, I can tell you what your kitties are! Do you think she's done with 3?!
Here's some individual shots, they were milk drunk and sleepy so they were so cooperative during the photoshoot!
Hmm, maybe just lay down the blanket and heating pad under her where she is.
Yes, she will be eager to jump in there right after them. It's okay if they cry, they're just trying to find mama. Have them nurse right away so they kind of force her to lay down, and the pet her and let her know it's okay. Send me a pic of the set up once you've done everything
fingers crossed that it works! I completely understand why they like the tight places, but I feel so bad! It's like they can't move much, but they like that the most. You can put them all in the big nest you have for them once they start walking at 3-4 weeks.No worries! Once they're in the box, the box should block off any little nook and cranny that they might crawl into!
This is what I worry about. You see that silver that's my central air duct. The babies can certainly move to the side of it. They won't get stuck but it would be a pain for Riley to get them out from th sides.
Note: I didn't feed her that tuna I had it open to coax her to the nest lol the smell is gets her attention.
Should I put a heat sorce in there? The blanket is thick and it's about 68 upstairs.
Aww, there we go! Easy fix. I'm glad she's settled with her babies now. All mamas are content as can be! I went back to the x-Ray picture you posted earlier on this thread. I think she was only a few weeks in because the skeletons were hard to count and just slightly calcified. I studied the picture for a good 20 minutes, and I counted 3 spines, hence the 3 babies she just had
Thank you guys! She is content. I think she was just frazzled. Because it wasn't the EXACT place she gave birth even though it was inches away lol. I'm still wondering if the vet was maybe wrong. Her belly is still round but I don't feel movement and I'm not sure if I feel a baby.
When the x-rays are done early in pregnancy, it can be so tricky to determine the litter size. Perhaps the vet was just a bit off! Since he has her record on the computer, phone him tomorrow and ask to review her picture again, maybe he can rub his eyes and look a little harder, LOL! Good luck
