More kittens?

My cat started having kittens last night at 9 p.m. I had to go to work. I came home this morning and there was 3. My little girl brought me 1 while i was asleep and said " mommy she had a nother 1 and its dieing" I said she only had 3 but this was just born. 16 hours latter. I tried to stimulate him and nothing. Could there be more? was he stuck? How can I check?

One way to definitely check for more kittens is to have an x-ray done. Your vet could also palpate her abdomen to see if they feel anymore.

It's not uncommon for cats to when interrupted labors. Can you still feel any kittens kicking in her stomach? In general, if she doesn't appear to be in distress, she is probably fine. I'm assuming the little guy didn't make it? He may have been unwell, he may have been in the birth canal too long, he could have been premature. It's hard to say.

Can you weigh each of the other kittens and make sure they are gaining enough each day?

And can you have mom spayed after her kittens have weaned?

He didn't make it. It was to late. I can weigh them. I can't tell if there's more. I didn't know they could go that long before having a nother kitten.

Yes, they can have breaks. Sorry about the little one. Please post the weights when you have them.

Please be sure to keep mom inside and away from intact males until the kittens are 8 weeks old and she can be spayed. Mom can get pregnant again within a week of delivery ask without going into heat, which is not healthy.

They weigh 4 oz even the one that didn't make it.

The weights are good. How are they doing now? [emoji]128522[/emoji]
