the kitten is nursing ok and everything,but i noticed its belly is bigger than its head is this normal or am i just being paranoided because i have never had the experience of raising a new born kitten.
from reading in the board.the kitten's umbilical is supposed to fall off after a couples hours after birth or the momma cat is suppose to remove it.but the kitten is almost a week old and still has part of the cord attached what do i do.
i would say momma cat is about 31/2 to 4 years old.this is her first litter.i have been keepin an eye on her and baby so she don't lay on the baby.can anyone tell when the kitten is old enough to see the vet.its only 2 days old.
she had four kittens total.the other three didn't live,they came out still born.she seems to be nursing ok now but i am afraid that momma will lay on her an smother though.momma keeps pulling the kitten to her.
i have a russian blue momma cat.she just had kittens.sadly only one survived.my question why does she keep laying on it sometimes and the other she trys to pull it closer when it is nursing?
