I'll post a picture of her once I get home, been floating around town today, trying to distract myself. Praying no more lost lives this week, or next week.

Update: Princess now jumps whenever the kittens move, it's really cute. They're still moving downwards but I feel like I can feel one on the side. It was just wiggling away just now! She got kinda annoyed with me touching her though... Whoops. So amazing. Here she is, sniffing out a piece of the chicken breast I threw her -



she's getting huge! And her bottom teats look to be getting full, and she's sixty days today :) I'm almost a contestant in The Waiting Game!

I don't think we'll ever see them moving inside her - she's a very fluffy cat as you can see. She also really, really hates this 85°f weather. Poor thing gets all staticky in the humidity.

Someone else in hot weather put ice cubes in a plastic bag and put them under a towel for her cat to lay on.

Here are other ideas. [article="0"]Keeping Cats Cool​[/article]

My mum has two fans in her bedroom but Princess loves her clothing cave. I'll try the ice bag thing though! She might like that.

How long after droppage do cats give birth? Princess seems significantly less pregnant today. She's still eating though!

So only today have we seen the babies moving. If it's a fluffy cat is it normal to not see this until the end? We have some pretty active babies on our hands, too :)

It's much harder to see in fluffy cats! Is her belly rippling in waves?

No, it's more these little... Rolls? In small spaces where the kittens are. It's wayyyy more noticeable on her right side too. Until today, left side was more active though.

I think there's only one over there but two on the other side that I can feel from the way they move.

One of the girls from a family that will adopt one of them (a close friend of mine) got to feel them moving today, she thought it was amazing.

It's fine. Leave her be for the moment. Sit nearby and try to coax her out. If not, then she's chosen her "safe" spot for now.

Let us know how it's going though. She may move the kittens later herself, or you can when she finally comes out. I know it's not ideal, but try not to interrupt labor.

So far we have two babies. Moms caring for her, she thinks number two might not make it cuz it hasn't cried yet (it's like seven minutes old)

Have you tried wrapping the baby in a towel and rubbing it to warm it up? It is out of the sac, right? Or can you not get to it?
