It swallowed mucus we got it out rubbed him down till he breathed ok. But she refusing to feed him I have no feeding bottle no credit to call a vet no car to get no where im scared
I'm glad the kitten is okay. Sometimes moms do not feed them right away if they are still laboring and have more kittens to deliver. Do you think she has more?
Otherwise, continue putting him to a nipple to see if she will let him nurse.
Do you have a small syringe or dropper? Do you have an egg, honey, mayonnaise, or yogurt? I can help you make something to give the kitten if necessary.
Its only a couple centre meters of a tail sticking out, mums on her way to take me to the vets now as shes popped the sac and stopped contractions so big worry there
First kitten is continuously tryingto feed I squeezed out some milk he cant get the hang of it but custard is being a bit more motherly and lettimg him try a little
Had no internet just got home. Still only one baby custard had two shots of oxy something and still no more.. the babys all need to be taken away as soon as their born as shes attacking them she want to be a mum butdont know how she bit his leg in the vet made it bleed. Hes doing okay. Im not to let her chew any of the cords either
Mom had 2 shots of oxytocin to help bring on labor. Hopefully it will work. Are you to bring her back for a c-section if it does not work? Does the vet think there are still live kittens to be born? They must come out eventually.
I think that mom will be a good mom when she is no longer in pain and distracted by labor and kittens pressing upon her. Right now, she is unable to care for the kitten. It's likely just her current state causing this.
Regardless, the kitten needs feeding 1-2 mLs every hour around the clock. It gets easier to feed as you and the kitten get used to doing it.
Feed tummy down, head up, a drop or two in the side of the mouth at a time. Let the kitten swallow, breathe, and go again. You want to be careful that the kitten does not aspirate formula into his lungs. If you have trouble, wrap the kitten in a towel like a burrito to immobilize him while feeding. Again, it gets easier.
Shes pushing slightly again.. nothingyet.he didnt say to bring her back unless serious problems occur but they said an emergency c section will cost overa thousand pounds. I simply dont ha e the money so they said id have to euthanize her whilst still pregnant.I got very upset
