Right, I would imagine that the testosterone was helpful in helping him to reach a healthy size and it sounds like he certainly has!  There shouldn't be any harm in neutering him now.

She is likely done, but may appear lumpy until her uterus shrinks back. She may have a few after pains over the next couple days. You can probably move them, but if she protests, leave her be tonight and just put your male cat where he can't disturb them. Is there a blanket they can lie on?

Yeah as of right she has let me move her and her babies. I put a sheet across the floor and lined her box with fluffy blankets. I also left fresh water and food near her box. So she doesnt have to go to far from her babies!

Sounds great!  Does she also have a litter box in there?  And some privacy from humans and other cats?

Quick question. Why does my mama cat keep want to following me around? She leaves her babies just to stay by side. I could barely get to work today bc she didnt want me to go? Is this normal? She doesnt seem to be in pain or anything. Any theories guys!? Also thanks for combining my threads!

She does seem to be breathing differently. Doesnt look to bad but its more like a heart beat breathing(if that makes sense.) Normal or should i consider maybe taking her in? Its some what faster but i mean she is purring a lot too.

I've not heard of kitten hiccups, but I suppose it's possible! [emoji]128522[/emoji]
