Just seen your earlier response, thanks!! Ok, chicken it is. Plenty of that here at least! I will try and find a real vet! Best to you

Sorry Sarthur2... Forgot to ask, should I put mum in a collar while I find a vet? Baby really squeaks when mum goes near her poor sore bottom. Thanks!!

Ah, ok on the spaying front. The kittens are 7 weeks old now but the prolapse happened at 5. I will hang on, it did feel wrong. I am terrified of getting her spayed as I have heard of two rescue cats dying post op. The vet has said she needs to dress her wound and check the healing for 6 days...

Thank you Dandila and Sarthur2, good of you to respond.  You're right Dandila, I will have to face the facts and separate her from mum if we have a hope of solving this. Sarthur, thanks so much for your encouragement and advice.  It is so damn sad.  I've been adding a few drops of oil to her...

Sorry, i should have been clearer...  this is the third time she's been treated and stitched.  This time I can see the stitches are still there...or at least seem to be but the prolapse is there also.  Not an ideal combination for the poor we mite.

Thank you very much talkingpeanut!  Really appreciate your advice.  I don't think the vet is using disolvable stitches.  I have to take her back in on Tuesday to get them taken out - not looking forward to it as they will see it's out again and then another traumatic session will ensue. ...

Hello I am working in South Sudan and we rescued a kitten some 10 months back who has now had kittens. One of the kittens developed a rectal prolapse at just under 5 weeks old and I have taken her to the 'vet' here three times to get it put back in which they claim they did and sewed her up...
