She has had diarrhea for almost a week already...I can see kittens in belly moving tremendously... And when I feel them I barely put my hands on her and I can feel their complete body... Her bottom is so yucky I can't clean it she won't let me and I can't even see vulva because she won't let me spread her legs... I know that's TMI but this is my first time having a pregnant Queen

Q queenlilly

You need to scruff her and clean her bottom with a warm, damp cloth.

A week of diarrhea seems excessive. What color is it?

Is she in labor? Are you seeing contractions?

It isn't too much diarrhea anymore or it's not watery it's just kind of loose but she goes a lot so much that her bottom is red. And she doesn't want me touching her bottom because it's sore. But I actually was able to lay her down a few minutes ago with a warm washcloth and clean her bottom as much as I could. I don't think she is Contracting but I know that she is in between 60 + 63 weeks.

Poor mama kitty.

I think you meant she is 60-63 days, not weeks.

The yellow diarrhea indicates infection. You need to get an antibiotic for her from the vet asap. You can put a dab of A&D ointment on her bottom to help the soreness.

She'll have them soon!

If she is nesting in the closet you should clean it out for her and set up another option in there. Many moms like closets.

If she's nesting, she's getting closer to labor.

Keep us posted!

Ok once I got up I came to find she disappeared when I came back...with her kitten. So she went under my son's bed
I got my son out and shut the door she is now confined. Seems she don't want me involved so I am letting her be I'll set an alarm for every hour to check on her

She had 3...I swear she looked bigger than that. Labor started a little before 3 a.m. ... Started in my husband's closet had one and there and then have the other two under my son's bed but she still looks like there could be more will there be any chance of her still being pregnant..should I move her...she is no where near her food and water..
