If she's having mild constractions, things are ok. Its when they are in heavy labor with strong contractions and no kittens, then you need to worry.

Theres could be a problem. My friends Cat did that and they went to the Vet. She could not have them normal because the kittens were to big. How old is your Cat? My Coco was 10 when she had her only litter. She had 3 between 2-6am then nothing. We thought she was done. Then about 9 that night she has two dead Male Calicos. Her labor stopped in between and the Vet had told us she would have 3 Kittens. One of the dead had a deforemed paw. Coco did not need the Vet after and did great. She is my Cat that could not be fixed because it would have killed her. I hope your Cat has soon.

She's about 2 years old and this is her first litter from what the vet said.
She doesn't seem to be in distress. She just sleeps, purrs, and licks a lot. If she was actually having hard contractions, i might worry a bit more, but the times she has, they've been very minor.

She is the same age Meeko was when she had her only litter. She wanted Coco with her the whole time she was in labor. Keep watching her. She is a good age to have Kittens. Let us know how it goes. Does the Vet know how many she might have? My Meeko just had one Yoshi. I lost him on Jan 11 to they think Fip and Kidney Stones at age 5. I could not believe how huge he was when he was born and how he fit when Meeko is a small Cat. She never even looked Preg. Coco was huge and you would see the Kittens kick her hard. Do the Kittens kick alot>

If the kittens are not born by morning, then call the vet and take her in. The first kitten may be having trouble.

Well its 4am here and he opens at 8am, I'm taking her right in. I haven't felt a kitten kick since sometime early Saturday and it's not early Monday. I feel that I've waited too long due to no one being open on the weekend. The discharge coming from down there is a red/orange, thinner consistency. Anyone know if that is normal?

I don't know where in Tennessee you are, but here is a number to an emergency vet in Nashville. They are open until 7am

Nashville Pet Emergency Clinic
(615) 383-2600
2000 12th Ave S, Nashville, TN 37204

Most private practice vets have an emergency number that you can call too. I'm surprised that apparently the ones in your area do not.

Also, here is a link to the venterinarians in Tennessee.
