Hi All,
I posted this in Cat Health but I wanted to post it here as well to see if anyone had any advice for me. Well I'm new to this site. My cat Mindy had 4 kittens yesterday. I don't know if they were her first litter or not because she came to us as a stray. Well today I fed Mindy and I picked up the kittens, she doesn't mind me picking them up and my friend took one, which Mindy didn't seem to like so she took the baby from my friend and ran off down the hall with her to put her back into her bed. I went down to check on them and I noticed that the baby had a cut on the side of her mouth where Mindy had obviously caught her. It seems like a big cut because she's so small, but it's not profusely bleeding or anything, in fact there was very little blood came out of it. The kitten seems to be fine now and is suckling away on Mindy and isn't crying or anything. Is there anything that I can do only to keep an eye on the baby. She's too little to be separated from Mindy. My husband says once it's not bleeding it should be fine that it will heal.
Has anyone got any advice for me I'm so upset about it.
