I recently took in a stray cat that turned out to be pregnant. Since my other 2 cats are older and spayed, I kept her completely separated from them in the office. Yesterday morning, she started howling and kept going in her nesting box. About 11am she gave birth to a healthy kitten and then about an hour later gave birth to a second-this one healthy but a little smaller. Everything seemed ok but I could distinctly feel a bump in side which felt like a little head. I was getting panic stricken, read all kinds of posts, spoke with an emergency vet. The vet said I could bring her in,do xrays,ultrasound, and if necessary a c-section. To make a long story short, about $2000 just to find out what was the issue( impossible amount of money for me). I monitored her and she seemed fine-eating, drinking and caring for the 2 little kittens. I read that feeding her kitten food would be good as it has extra calorie so this morning I went to the store to get her some. When I came home to my surprise and horror, she had given birth to a stillborn kitten- this was almost 24 hours later
