Help! 2 Kittens!

I had to help with the second, because it came so fast and she got confused, but my question is......does the need to nurse them immediately?
She gave them a little, now she is cleaning them, but hasn't nursed since.

kittykook · Mar 7, 2005

Don't worry too much about her nursing right now.....the most important thing is that she cleans them and their airways are clear so they are breathing good.

Congrats on your new arrivals! Be sure to keep us updated!

kat_boy · Mar 7, 2005

Yes, she's done a great job cleaning them, she has since nursed them, and they are all cuddling right now.
She is having more contractions, and is still full....so she's not done yet.
Thanks Kitty!

I'm so excited that the babies are finally coming! I bet you are a nervous wreck. I feel like a nervous "aunt".

As soon as you are able......post some pictures of the new babies and mom!

I'm still waiting on the 3rd kitten, hasn't come yet.

turtlecat · Mar 7, 2005

aww .. anything new to report? Also.. don't worry too much about the pause.. I've heard that cats can take up to 24 hours to give birth to their entire litter

but still keep an eye out, cause 1 may block off the rest.

kat_boy · Mar 7, 2005

Kitten 3 is here, now waiting for #4, she's contracting again.
She's going quick....i don't think it's been an hour yet, and there's 3

kat_boy · Mar 7, 2005

Ok, we already have kitten 4

turtlecat · Mar 7, 2005

Awww!!!

Still more coming?

kat_boy · Mar 7, 2005

not too sure

kat_boy · Mar 7, 2005

Ok guys, I think we're done
4 kittens. 2 torties, 1 tuxedo, and one orange/beige
What a rainbow!

turtlecat · Mar 7, 2005

Awww

how sweet .. When can we start begging for pictures?

kat_boy · Mar 7, 2005

soon, LOL....I just want to make sure she's settled, and doesn't want to move the kittens all over the place before I start snapping

WOW! MATT! How exciting!!! Waiting with bated breath for pics of Mummy and her babies.

ranger · Mar 7, 2005

They sound gorgeous, congratulations!

kittykook · Mar 7, 2005

Are you sure she's done? Feel her belly and see if you can feel anymore "lumps" or movement.

Gosh I would have thought she'd have more than 4 with the size of her belly!

I can't wait for pictures!!!!

jcat · Mar 7, 2005

Congratulations!

captiva · Mar 7, 2005

yayyyy!!!! Great job Mama and Matt!!!!

That's great that you have such a colorful litter!!!

bengalbabe · Mar 7, 2005

YEAH!!!! but only 4? I wonder if she's taking a break. There's gotta be more in there! oh well 4 is a great number. Not too many to worry about.
