Hi all!!
My mother cat had 5 kittens (first litter for us both) on Saturday, aug 25th.
I have noticed that she has been panting, still, after nursing the kittens. I know these "afterpains" are normal for the uterus to return to its pre-pregnancy size, but..
Is it normal for her to STILL (after 4 days?) be getting them so strong that she starts to pant heavely and leaves her nest to go lay on the floor?
Thanks

Shandadee

It is best you get them all to the vet asap. It sounds like there's one more and she's trying to discharge it and failing....
