thank you

how long after the sack do they give birth?

Sassy had the brown slimy discharge about 4 hours before she had her first kitten. All cats are different so just know that she could have her kittens at anytime now. Just keep checking on her. Sassy started breathing fast with her contractions when it was close to delivery time, and she started panting when it was time to start pushing.

It can vary one woman on here waited nearly a day! Tigger didn't show it! Usually it's about 4-6 hours so ice been told! Don't worry though you'll definately know when's she ready to push. She might well be having contractions, you just can't always see. What is she doing now?

Also try leaving her on her own for a while, this sometimes eases their anxiousness! Good luck [emoji]127808[/emoji]

ok thank you cud you see her contracting as I cnt see flo is hvin contractions?

she is still very restless everytime i leave the room she follows me meowing one minute she is quite under my bed then she is on the bed with me purring then under the bed. went and had a bath earlier and she stayed in the bathroom with me meowing she keeps growing and funny noises to and people outside talking?!

I couldn't see her having contractions until it was time for her to push. I couldn't even feel any until it was time. You can rest your hand on her belly for a while and see if you can feel any. I had a pregnant cat 4 years ago that I could feel the mild contractions for about 7 hours before I could see them.i didn't see hers until it was time to push.

flo seems really unsettled she keeps wanting my dog for comfort is this safe to let them be together?

It sounds like she is in labor, just not at the delivery stage. If you are confident that the dog will not hurt the kittens then let her be with it. There is no reason to seperate them unless she doesn't want the dog around her or the kittens

Sassy was fine with my daughter's bulldog watching her deliver the kittens but when ge sniffed them she came unglued. She was also fine with the other cats being there but she gets very defensive if they get anywhere near her kittens.

cheers wish she wud hurry up and have them nw bless her

she's hvin strong contractions nw so wnt be much longer :-)

Keep us updated

Great, hoping for a quick and easy delivery.

If you don't think the dog will cause a problem let it be near her but not in with her for... Best be safe than sorry!

flo has just given birth to her first Kittens
