No he's alive but she chewed some of his tail off and he had a little blood in his mouth he's feeding though and breathing fine I can't believe it I can't believe he survived I'm in shock
There was blood in the mouth but not any more its suckling very strong and she just had a burst of waters all over the place not really bloody just a tinge of blood and and his tail isn't bleeding its just red
Also I called the humane society and they said they would just spay her the babies wouldn't make it they acted like they couldn't help so far so good well as good as we can expect so far. Thank you so much just having someone there was helpful. She has at least onemore I think
She needs a vet to get tht last baby out. Go to the vet and insist if you have to that something be done
As for the babies, its good they're nursing. If mama isn't staying near them, get them on a blanket-covered heating pad. Can you post pics of both babies and the first's tail and the mama?
Is there any chance the mother ate the first placenta? Because they DO eat the placentas.
It sounds as though the placentas are out. She should have the next baby at some point on her own. I had a feeling she might begin labor again. Breech births can be tough on some cats.
As long as all the kittens and placentas come out she should be okay.
So far you have 2 kittens who appear healthy and are nursing well? I'm surprised the one kitten made it too!
Do you need to bandage its tail, or does it look like it will heal okay?
It sounds like you're handling this well. I know this is stressful. Hang in there!
Thank you so much she's pushing again but no baby yet she is bleeding a bit but not a whole bunch I'm gonna let her be for a moment and see if she had it on her own
If this baby comes out partway and gets stuck, you may need to help him out. Use your index and middle fingers. Form them into a kind of hook and place them behind the kitten's shoulders/hips[front or back] and VERY GENTLY pull slightly downward. If it won't come out, don't force it. Don't let her chew this one either.
I ran to the corner store to get more gloves we ran out and my daughter said she's still pushing but nothing she's been pushing for about 20 mins now I really hope this one isn't breech we are all an emotional wreck right now and momma will need a vet check as soon as I get my check but I just want the babies to all be born thanks so much we live animals and try to rescue here and there we almost lost a cat not to long ago it cost me 175 to get her better so I'm tapped out on money I'm just glad things are progressing I'll be in touch in a few thank you so much
You don't need gloves if your hands are clean. You can pull gently to help, but never by the tail or head. Leg or shoulders only or the uterus can tear or baby can be damaged.
I took a closer look at kitty number one and it seems as if she has chewed the back of the legs as soon as we get the next baby out I will post pics of him
