Hi everyone. I haven't revisited this page since 2011 when I was pretty new to fostering and had some questions and I enjoyed reading and learning from some great threads on here. I took home a new foster cat from the shelter on MLK day because she was pregnant and tiny and so so sweet. This past Thursday she went into labor (well kind of). I could see a "kitten sack" protruding but nothing else developed. Vet kept saying if she's acting fine, not actively pushing or anything, it's probably just going to be a slow labor and delivery. So we kept checking in until Friday afternoon, when they thought it would be best to give her some oxytocin to move things along. From Friday evening around 6 pm through Saturday morning around 11 am she had TEN KITTENS. They are very very very small, but are warm and eating. I have been taking out the bigger 5 several times a day to make sure the littles get a good turn, and supplementing whoever will eat from a syringe several times a day/night (most of the littles and one of the bigs). They were having trouble staying warm so I actually have them under a chick brooder, which they seem to love (lucky I am a chicken person). Mostly, I am starting this thread to document this giant project, to get advice if needed, and maybe to help someone else who ends up with a giant litter of tiny kittens one day. Happy Monday
