Update, please help!

Was it the vet you spoke to or was it the receptionist?she doesnt sound much use!!
Call them back and ask to speak to the vet, if they are still no use call another vet

Oh yes please let us know how everything goes

I'll keep all my fingers and toes crossed for good luck for her and the babies I'll say a prayer too.

she sounds so young, poor baby

"help!!", Do you have an update for us??

I called the vet and he told me to give it another day because she doesn't seem uncomfortable. I gave it another day so I am getting ready to call again now.

We got back from the emergency vet not long ago. Cookie has Giardia so she is being treated for that. It's a little scary because the medicine, while safe for dogs and humans (even while pregnant) has never really been tested on cats before but I guess they have never had a problem. I didn't want to wait to treat her for it until after she has the babies because I did not want her passing it to them. She vet said that she is definitely ready to have her kittens so it is just a matter of time. She suggested that Cookie is probably holding off her labor (which would explain why she has started and stopped a couple times) because of stress so I will be taking better care to keep the dog away from her and I will also stop bringing her back and forth to work with me.

Hopefully they will be here soon. Thanks for all the support!

Good luck and keep us updated on her progress!

How is she doing today?

I know she has been in her nesting box quite a bit the last couple days and this morning I noticed some discharge. Her vaginal opening has also been much more noticeable, lighter in color and even maybe a little bigger. Hopefully this time she is comfortable and won't stop her labor again!

Ohhh, waiting anxiously!!! Keep us posted!

Haha, I will probably post here before I even call anybody about the kittens! I'll definitely let you guys know. We are going out of town this weekend so I hope she has them before then so that I won't miss it. Somebody will be coming by to check on her, feed her, and scoop the litter box anyway, though.

I will let you know! Off to work, by myself lately...no Cookie!!

How is she now? This is the first pregnancy - birth I've followed on here as I'm new. I'm so excited.

She's doing fine right now. No signs of labor or anything yet and her belly hasn't dropped yet (does that happen EVERY time?). I hope she has them today or tomorrow; we are going out of town for the weekend and I can't take her with me. I don't want to miss it!

Any updates?? How's our girl?

Nothing yet. I will keep you posted!

I just got home to find a pretty large drop of blood (and a couple small ones) on the floor in the room I keep Cookie in. It doesn't look very thick at all. Is she just getting close or is this reason for concern?

Hun, you've been over-reacting about every little thing for over a week now.
My first bit of advice, CALM DOWN.

I mean just having the name HELP! is showing you're being a little high-strung about this.

LOL I can totally sympathize to a certain extent, when my Lily was getting close I was watching her like a hawk.

Since, however, your vet has told you on more than one occasion that all is well, you need to take a chill pill and let nature take its course!!!!

<~~~ Looking like this everytime you see a little bit of discharge or slight differences in behavior is just going to make you crazy!!!

Calm down, take what the vet said to heart, they know what they're talking about, and don't sweat the small stuff. Pregnant cats have discharge, it happens. Pregnant cats do weird things, it happens.

Unless it's something big that is making you seriously worry, just take it one day at a time and above all BE PATIENT. She's going to give birth when her and the kittens are ready. There's nothing you can do about it.

I must admit your posts give ME a little anxiety watching you get so freaked out by every little tiny thing!!!

Don't worry hunnie, nature knows what it's doing and everything will be fine.

I'm not freaking out, just making sure. She had some bloody discharge once before but it wasn't watery. I have never had a pregnant cat before and she being a stray, I don't have any history. Also, I want to know if it is normal because of the Giardia medication she is on. The vet said she didn't know if it was safe for cats, let alone pregnant cats.

I totally see what you're saying with her medications and all. Poor lil girl, I really hope she gets well soon!!!!

The best person to talk to about all of this is your vet. Since it's a medication that doesn't have a history with cats, I'm not so sure many on here would know much about it.

I know what it's like to have a pregnant stray, as my Lily came to us pregnant as well. It's scary waiting for those babies to be born and you pray they are healthy.

Just calm down, take a deep breath, and I wish you and your girl all the best of luck for a safe and healthy delivery!!!!

But remember, she will have them when nature thinks it's right. You need to keep your vet updated on everything little thing going on because of her being on that medication.

Ziggy had a runny bloody discharge and she delivered 12 hours later. I was worried about Ziggy. I didn't see her mucus plug or anything and now we have 4 healthy babies.

Don't worry, all will be fine. You'll go into the room one morning and she'll have a couple of babies nuzzling her nipples!!

Thanks. There was more blood this morning but she seems fine. I'm not too worried because I have read that there could be blood.
